Abstract | Fatigue failure can still occur beyond 10(7) cycles, i.e. very-high-cycle fatigue (VHCF), in many metallic materials, such as aluminium alloys and high-strength steels. For VHCF of high-strength steels, a fine granular area (FGA) surrounding an inclusion is commonly identified as the characteristic region of crack initiation on the fracture surface. However, no such FGA feature and related crack initiation behaviour were observed in VHCF of conventionally cast or wrought aluminium alloys. Here, we first reported the distinct mechanisms of crack initiation and early growth, namely the microstructure feature and the role of FGA in VHCF performance for an additively manufactured (AM) AlSi10Mg alloy. The AM pores play a key role in fatigue crack initiation similar to that of the inclusions in high-strength steels, resulting in almost identical FGA behaviour for different materials under a range of mean stress with a stress ratio at R < 0 or R > 0. The profile microstructure of FGA is identified as a nanograin layer with Si rearrangement and grain boundary transition. This process consumes a large amount of cyclic plastic energy making FGA undertake a vast majority of VHCF life. These results will deepen the understanding of VHCF nature and shed light on crack initiation mechanism of other aluminium and AM alloys.
