Anotace
Fatigue properties of ultrafine-grained materials exploitable in engineering practise are determined by the extent of damage caused by the cumulative cyclic plastic deformation both in their bulk and in their surface layers. The aim of the project is to elucidate the relevant mechanisms of plastic deformation in a number of different ultrafine-grained materials submitted to cyclic loading and thus to provide fundamental knowledge inevitable for further material design and application.
