Abstract
The elementary mechanisms of deformation under fatigue stress are analysed in a stainless steel bicrystal by transmission electron microscopy. Attention is paid to the interaction between lattice dislocations and a ferrite–austenite interface oriented very near the Kurdjumov–Sachs orientation relationship. Results differ according to whether the notch is located in the α phase or in the phase. Only in the bicrystal notched in the α phase was transmission of dislocations across the interface into the -phase observed. A possible correlation between the microscopic observations and the fatigue behaviour of the bicrystal is discussed.
