| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to determine the optimal alloy composition, we investigate the low-cycle fatigue properties of seven Fe-30Mn-(6-x)Si-xAl alloys with x=0 to 6. The alloys are prepared by induction melting. Cylindrical fatigue specimens with a diameter of 8 mm are machined from the annealed alloys after hot forging and rolling. The specimens are subjected to axial-strain-controlled low-cycle fatigue tests in air at a constant total strain range of 2.0 %. The volume fractions of the constituent phases are determined using X-ray diffraction analyses, and the deformation microstructures are observed using scanning electron microscopy, electron backscatter diffraction (SEM-EBSD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). We have found that the Fe-30Mn-4Si-2Al alloy with FCC-HCP martensitic transformation shows the best fatigue life of more than 8,000 cycles. It is interesting to note that the alloy has an intermediate value of SFE (stacking fault energy) among the present seven alloys.
