Abstract
The fatigue properties and the morphology of the specimen surface and fracture surface were investigated in electrodeposited nanocrystalline Ni–P alloy subjected to high-cycle fatigue. The nanocrystalline specimens, which have a {0 0 1} texture and high fractions of low-angle and Σ3 boundaries, show a higher fatigue limit than Ni polycrystals with conventional grain size. The change in specimen surface and fracture surface by cyclic deformation is discussed in connection with grain boundary microstructure to reveal the mechanism of fatigue fracture in nanocrystalline materials.
