Mechanism of fatigue crack initiation and propagation in the very high cycle fatigue regime of high-strength steels

TL;DR: In this paper, a mechanism for the formation of a fine granular area in high-strength steels generated by a very high number of cycles to failure is proposed, where the crack initiation and propagation mechanism is not fully understood.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ti–Cu–Ni shape memory bulk metallic glass composites

TL;DR: In this paper, a deformation mechanism is proposed with the help of experimental observations and finite-element simulation, which demonstrates that stress concentrations occur around the precipitates, which promotes a heterogeneous stress distribution and the formation of multiple shear bands.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of different non-metallic inclusion types on the crack initiation in high-strength steels in the VHCF regime

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of different inclusion types on the crack initiation in the very high cycle fatigue regime was clarified, in which runout specimens were tested repeatedly with higher stress amplitudes until failure occurred.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the role of microstructure in governing the fatigue behaviour of nanostructured bainitic steels

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of the microstructure during the fatigue crack propagation has been analyzed on the basis of the relationships between grain misorientations and grain boundaries by Electron Backscatter Diffraction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improving surface hardness of austenitic stainless steel using waterjet peening process

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of multiple jet passes and other parameters namely feedrate and pressure in waterjet peening of austenitic stainless steel 304 was analyzed and a reverse effect on the subsurface hardness was found for the feedrate.
