The fatigue cracking mechanisms at twin boundaries (TBs) are investigated by considering the stacking fault energy, dislocation slip mode and the difference in the Schmid factors (DSF) between matrix and twin. In Cu and its alloys, the occurrence of TB cracking becomes much more frequent with either increasing the alloying component or the DSF. Considering the interactions between dislocations and...
Fatigue cracking along twin boundaries (TBs) has significantly different features in Cu and Cu–Al alloys. In Cu and Cu–5at.% Al alloy, the TBs are intrinsically strong and resist fatigue cracking. With the decrease in stacking fault energy (SFE), some fatigue cracks were observed along or near the TBs in Cu–16at.% Al alloys. The current findings confirm that the TBs are not always strong enough to...
