Abstract

In the framework of a broader experimental/theoretical investigation regarding the crack initiation stage, the current study was centered on fatigue crack nucleation. Polycrystalline commercially pure copper was selected with attention directed toward fine scale surface features. Phenomenologically, observational findings regarding the role of residual stresses were explored by utilizing scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Experimental results are described and analyzed with some modeling aspects and simulation attempts, even as far as environmental/plasticity interactions.
