| Abstract: | A machined material has a work-hardened layer at its surface. In this study, a surface modification technique, the scanning cyclic press (SCP), was applied to machined specimens of magnesium alloy, AZ31, to investigate whether SCP can improve its fatigue properties regardless of the surface finish. During the SCP process, a vibrating indenter reciprocally scanned the specimen's surface, and it applied cyclical low-compressive loadings to the surface for 8 x 10(6) cycles. After applying SCP, the surfaces of the specimens were observed using a laser scanning microscope, and the surface roughness was measured. The surface observation and surface roughness measurement showed that the changes in the surface state after applying SCP were relatively small and the surface roughness after applying SCP was more homogenous than before applying SCP. Uniaxial push-pull fatigue tests were conducted for SCP-treated specimens and untreated specimens. The test results showed that the fatigue life of SCP-treated specimens was longer than that of untreated specimens. To clarify the reason for the improvement effect, the fracture surfaces were observed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The SEM observation showed that the fracture morphology was different between the SCP-treated specimen and the untreated specimen. In the SCP-treated specimen, fatigue fracture origins were sub-surface, while the untreated specimen fractured at the surface. These results suggest that SCP could improve the fatigue properties of AZ31 regardless of the surface finish of the specimen before SCP. |
