The aviation industry demands thin-walled structures of high dimensional accuracy. Varying radii and individual use-cases, e.g. for repair purpose, require flexible forming techniques. Laser peen forming (LPF) represents such a forming process providing precise energy input by a pulsed laser over a wide energy range. Among adjustable parameters such as laser intensity and focus size, the spot shape, i.e. square and circular, is usually fixed for a specific laser system. As the spot shape is a crucial parameter, this work focuses on the effect of the spot shape on structural deformation after LPF application. Therefore, models for laser peen forming of thin-walled Ti-6Al-4V strips for LPF systems with circular and square focus shapes are set up. Geometric conditions on both focus shapes ensure equal energy input during the laser processing. The numerical simulation relies on the so called eigenstrain method, leading to a cost-efficient calculation of resulting deformation after the dynamic LPF process. Square-based peening pattern exhibit higher deflection. For increasing spot size, the deflection difference between square and circle-based patterns increase slightly.
