Fatigue crack growth near-threshold stress intensity factor is affected by the microstructure of the material. A large portion of microstructural influence is due to the change in grain size of the material. Grain size in the dual phase steel was varied and found that the near-threshold stress intensity factor (rKth) increased as the grain size increased. Influence of load ratio nearthreshold fatigue crack propagation was also studied. It was observed that the near-threshold stress intensity range, rKthfor fatigue growth decreased with increasing load ratio.
