Effect of phase morphology on fatigue crack growth behavior of α-β titanium alloy—A crack closure rationale

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of phase morphology on fatigue crack growth (FCG) resistance has been investigated in the case of an α-β titanium alloy, where the microstructures comprising metastable β matrix are observed to yield higher FCG resistance than those for transformed β matrix, irrespective of primary α phase morphology (equiaxed or elongated).
Journal ArticleDOI

Fatigue and fracture behavior of a nickel−chromium free austenitic steel

TL;DR: In this article, the Ni-Cr free austenitic steels based on the Fe-Mn-Al-C system are relatively less expensive than those from the FeCr-Ni-C systems due to their being nickel-chromium free stainless steels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of laser surface treatment on fatigue crack growth resistance in an FeMnAl austenitic steel

TL;DR: Laser surface treatment (LST) results in significant improvement in fatigue crack growth resistance of an Fe(n)MnAl austenitic steel as discussed by the authors, which is attributed to extensive crack closure as a result of compressive residual stresses originating from LST.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the fatigue crack growth resistance of upper bainite-martensite in an AISI 4330 steel

TL;DR: In this article, a vanadium containing steel corresponding to the AISI 4330 designation was shown to have superior tensile properties and fracture toughness in comparison with the behavior of the fully martensitic structure.
