When a laser shock wave is loaded onto the surface of a concave model, many factors affect the laser shock effect, including loading pressure, curvature, surface wave and reflection of longitudinal wave. It is difficult to clarify the mixed effects of these factors, as such. The reflection of longitudinal wave is the most important factor, and the non-reflective concave model can effectively distinguish the influence of longitudinal wave reflection. In this paper, the concave models with and without reflection are established using the ABAQUS software. The effect of loading pressure, curvature, surface wave, and reflection of longitudinal wave on laser shock processing are analyzed. Curvature changes the incident angle of the laser during processing, so the actual pressure on the material surface changes. The results show that the optimal loading pressure is 2000 MPa/4 J when the curvature is 1/5 and the spot radius is 4 mm. The experimental results are consistent with the simulation results, so the simulation results are reliable.
