Abstract
The profiles of persistent slip markings produced by uniaxial and biaxial cyclic straining in four different polycrystalline materials with f.c.c. structure were investigated using focused ion beam (FIB) cutting and TEM observation of oriented surface foils. Typical shapes of persistent slip markings are extrusions accompanied by parallel intrusions. In some cases only extrusions were developed and intrusions were produced later in fatigue life. In polycrystalline copper extrusions and intrusions appear on the surface of the grain where persistent slip band characterized by ladder-like dislocation structure egress on the surface. Similar features were observed in fatigued austenitic 316L and Sanicro 25 steels but the extrusion and intrusion shapes were more complicated. Crack-like intrusion shapes produce high stress and strain concentration and primary stage I crack starts to grow from the tip of intrusions. The experimental observations were compared with the predictions of the existing crack initiation models.
