Abstract

The effect of the morphology and size of iron carbide in a high-carbon steel on the fatigue strength and critical crack opening is considered. The increase in the fatigue strength induced by a decrease in the pearlite size in medium-and high-carbon steels is caused by the fact that the time of formation of nonuniformities in a uniform dislocation distribution shifts toward high total strains.
