Abstract
A study was made to evaluate the relative extent to which disruption of atomic bonds occurs during the early stages of a fatigue test. Periodical reheating to the recrystallization temperature was employed as a means of removing the effects of work hardening developed by the repeated stressing. Since this processing did not significantly affect the finite fatigue life, it is concluded that disruption of atomic bonds is initiated in local regions during a relatively early stage of cyclic stressing.
