Abstract

Using an ultrafine grained copper processed by ECAP, rotating bending fatigue tests have been carried out. Significant differences in morphological feature in post-fatigued surfaces between high and low cyclic stress amplitudes were observed. To clarify the formation process of surface damage, morphological changes in surface damage caused by cyclic stresses were monitored successively by an optical microscope. Putting those OM observations and SEM observations of post-fatigued surfaces together, the formation processes of surface damage were discussed.
