Abstract
AbstractThe ultrasonic fatigue tests under two three‐point bending loading modes were carried out on TC4 specimens with the equiaxed, bimodal, and lamellar microstructure in the range of 105 to 109 cycles. The S‐N curves with different shapes were obtained, and it was found that the crack initiation in very high cycle regime changed from surface to subsurface. The crack initiation mechanism with different microstructures was revealed by fracture analysis. The axial tension influence mechanism is that it changes the axial stress distribution on the specimen cross section and makes the crack origin migrate to the interior.
