The nature of arrested cracks in run-out fatigue tests of a type 316L austenitic stainless steel with electropolished surfaces has been investigated. The fatigue limit was determined in rotating-bending by means of the staircase method to be 302 ± 5 MPa. Arrested crack nuclei were shown to arrest at coherent deformation twins, developed by fatigue.

An energy-based low-cycle fatigue model was proposed for applications at a range of temperatures. An existing model was extended to the integrated approach, incorporating the simultaneous effects of strain rate and temperature. A favored material at high temperature, type 316L stainless steel, was selected in this study and its material characteristics were investigated. Tensile tests and low-cycle fatigue tests were performed using several strain rates at a temperature ranging from room temperature to 650 °C. Material properties were obtained in terms of temperature using the displacement-controlled tensile tests and further material response were investigated using strain-controlled tensile tests. Consequently, no pronounced reduction in strengths occurred at temperatures between 300 and 550 °C, and a negative strain rate response was observed in the temperature range. Based on the low-cycle fatigue tests by varying strain rates and temperature, it was found that a normalized plastic strain energy density and a strain-rate modified cycle were successfully correlated. The accuracy of the model was discussed by comparing between predicted and experimental lives.

The aim of the present work was to investigate the effects of specific nitrogen gas additions to argon shielding gas on morphology and microstructure of austenitic stainless steel TIG welds. An autogenous TIG welding process was applied on type 316L stainless steel to produce a bead-on-plate weld. The ferrite content of weld metal was measured using a Feritscope. The results indicated that the arc voltage increase as the amount of nitrogen gas added to the argon atmosphere increases. The retained ferrite content of type 316L stainless steel TIG weld metal decreased rapidly as nitrogen gas addition to the argon shielding gas was increased.
