Abstract

Abstract Four-point-bending and strain-controlled fatigue experiments were performed on electrodeposited nanocrystalline nickel specimens at room temperature. For the first time, the deformation behaviour of bulk nanonickel specimens was studied in an atomic force microscope with a newly developed in situ bending machine. Results show that grain boundary sliding plays an important role during deformation, and the fatigue crack propagates along grain boundaries.
