The effect of notch size on fatigue crack threshold and propagation in cast gamma titanium aluminide

Cracks were initiated and grown from notched specimens with notch lengths of 0.03 (FIB), 0.06, 0.1 and 0.5 mm (diamond blade), in cast gamma titanium aluminide at 400 oC. Specimens with longer 0.1 and 0.5 mm notches initiated from the notch and show no effect from initial notch size on either crack...
