Abstract
VHCF properties of the Ni-based single crystal superalloy AM1 with pre-deformation have been investigated at 1000 °C. Pre-deformed material did not present life debit under fully reversed conditions (R = −1). Pre-deformation decreased VHCF lifetime under high mean stress conditions (R = 0.5) with a shift from internal to mode I surface crack initiation. The pre-deformed material has microstructure coarsened bands lying on the former {111} slip planes, facilitating microstructure shearing during VHCF at R = 0.5. Slip traces increased surface roughness, causing a surface recrystallization and initiation of the fatal crack from the surface. Rejuvenation heat treatment after pre-deformation can restore the microstructure and the fatigue life.
