Abstract
Considering the relationship between austenite stability and strain level, the cyclic response curves are obtained for SLM 304L under different strain amplitude at R = 0.3. The results indicate that since the microstructure characteristics shift from stacking faults (SFs) at low strain amplitude to martensite and twins at high strain amplitude, the cyclic softening behavior transitions to cyclic hardening behavior. Besides, it also indicates that high strain levels can overcome the influence of initial microstructure on fatigue performance, presenting a new sight to understand the relationship between cyclic hardening and martensite transformation.
