In this study, the effect of thermal oxidation on the high cycle rotating bending fatigue behavior of Ti6Al4V alloy was investigated. Oxidation, which was performed at 600°C for 60 h in air, considerably improved the surface hardness and particularly the yield strength of the alloy without scarifying the tensile ductility. Unfortunately, the rotating bending fatigue strength at 5x106 cycles decreased from about 610 MPa to about 400 MPa upon oxidation. Thus, thermal oxidation leaded a reduction in the fatigue strength of around 34%, while improving the surface hardness (HV0.1) and yield strength 85 % and 36 %, respectively.

Safety designs and fracture designs are the two important fields of crack theory. The fracture problems of middle carbon steel under extra-low cycle rotating bending fatigue loading are studied in this paper. The experiments have been made in special rotating bending fatigue fracture machine designed by us. Several problems, the relations of the cycle times of fracture and the strain amplitude near notch tip to the deflection, the effects of depth and tip radius of notch to the cycle times of fracture, are discussed through the experiments. The mathematical expression of fracture toughness to the cycle times of fracture is obtained. The suitable parameters of rotating bending fatigue fracture model for middle-carbon steel in extra-low cycle times has been proposed.

Cavitation impact, which normally produces severe damage in hydraulic machinery, can be used to modify surfaces in the same way as shot peening. Cavitation impact enables the surface of a material to be peened without the use of shot, thus it is called cavitation shotless peening. As there are no solid body collisions occurring in this peening process, the roughness of the peened surface should be less than that produced by shot peening. This characteristic makes it suitable for peening soft metals. In order to demonstrate the improvement of the fatigue strength of aluminum alloy by this process, specimens were subjected to the process, and then tested in a rotating bending fatigue test. Cavitation impacts were produced and controlled by using a submerged high speed water jet with cavitation, i.e., a cavitating jet. It was revealed that the fatigue strength of an aluminum alloy specimen treated by this peening process was 50% stronger than that of a specimen without peening.
