title = "Observation of Internal Fatigue Cracks in Repeatedly Induction-Heated S45C Bearing Steel under Rotating Bending Fatigue",
abstract = "Induction-heated steel has hard and soft layers. These layers can cause an internal fatigue crack originating from the boundary of these layers when cyclic stress is applied. Repeated heating is known as a method for improving fatigue strength, and it was applied to induction heating method. Repeatedly induction-heated steel had high fatigue strength compared to single quenching. We performed rotating bending fatigue tests of low carbon steel (JIS-S45C) induction-heated three times, and observed the fracture surfaces and the microstructures of internal fatigue cracks. The internal fatigue cracks originated from the area around the boundary between soft and hard layers surrounding crack origin. Some pearlite and ferrite can be seen. There were pearlite and dimples on the soft layer of internal fatigue crack and clear grains on the hard layer of the crack. From chase-up observation, we revealed that internal fatigue crack originated from soft layer.",
