Abstract
Accumulative damage during early stage of fatigue in AISI 321 steel was investigated by eddy current test, atomic force microscopy, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Surface slip, dislocation, and strain-induced martensite were determined as the main damage types. Moreover, damage during the fatigue was found to be increased with the increasing fatigue cycles and load amplitude. The contribution of strain-induced martensite to the total eddy current amplitude (Vmax) was enhanced with the increase in its volume fraction. Finally, a linear relationship between Vslip and the height of surface slip was established.
