Fatigue behavior of a rolled AZ31 magnesium alloy after surface treatment by EP and BB conditions

Rotating bending fatigue tests have been performed for AZ31 Mg alloys. Characteristic of fatigue was evaluated and discussed on the basis of fracture surface analysis. Electrical polishing (EP) as well as ball burnishing (BB) was performed on two groups, to evaluate the best conditions for the fatig...
