It was shown that introducing an ultrafine-grained (UFG) microstructure in pure metals as well as some alloys leads to strongly enhanced fatigue properties. The cyclic deformation behavior of UFG Ti-6Al-4V ELI (extra low interstitials) alloy is studied by both strain and stress controlled fatigue tests using plastic strain amplitudes between 3 × 10−4 and 5 × 10−3 and stress amplitudes ranging from 550 to 670 MPa. The UFG microstructures were obtained by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) with different number of passes followed by a subsequent thermomechanical treatment (TMT). When compared to the conventional grain (CG) size counterpart, the UFG alloy exhibited a pronounced enhancement in the fatigue life in the S–N (Wöhler) diagram. It was also shown that additional UFG processing prior to TMT did not result in any further improvement of the fatigue resistance. Furthermore, microstructural investigations revealed a high cyclic stability of the UFG microstructure.
