Effects of graphite nodules on crack growth behaviour of austempered ductile iron

Austempered ductile iron (ADI) is a candidate material for camshafts, where however, the early stages of fatigue damage are of major concern during service. A fundamental microstructurally based assessment of the mechanisms of fatigue failure is important. An ADI microstructure austenitised at 900°C...
