Abstract
The low-cycle fatigue behavior of Type 304 stainless steel at 593/sup 0/C is examined along with aspects of crack propagation in smooth specimens. Results show that the number of cycles to initiate cracks in smooth specimens decreases as the strain range increases. Crack-initiation life can be directly determined from plots of strain cycles vs crack length. (JRD)
