About the fatigue crack propagation threshold of metals as a design criterion – A review

TL;DR: The fatigue crack propagation threshold ΔKth is of paramount importance for any kind of damage tolerant design, but in contrast to this importance, the determination and application of the parameter is not on the firm ground as previously assumed.

The nature and the mechanism of crack initiation and early growth for very-high-cycle fatigue of metallic materials – An overview

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the research progress on the crack initiation characteristics and the related mechanisms for VHCF of metallic materials and proposed a new model of Numerous Cyclic Pressing to explain the formation mechanism of FGA, and Verification of proposed NCP model.

Factors influencing the mechanism of superlong fatigue failure in steels

TL;DR: In this article, a particular fatigue fracture morphology in the vicinity of the fracture origin (non-metallic inclusions) of a heat-treated alloy steel, SCM435, was tested to N ≥ 10 8.

Subsurface crack initiation and propagation mechanism in high-strength steel in a very high cycle fatigue regime

TL;DR: In this article, the mechanism for the formation of the GBF area was proposed as the "dispersive decohesion of spherical carbide" model, in which during the fatigue process multiple microcracks are initiated dispersively by de-cohesion of the carbide from the matrix around a non-metallic inclusion.
