Here, D is a factor depending on the defect location (surface or bulk), while α depends on the hardness. Studies by Meurling et al., [12] Sohar et al., [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] Kazymyrovych et al., [21,22] Ekengren et al., [23] Bergström et al., [24] and Randelius et al. [25,26] investigated the influences of microstructure properties on HCF (N G ¼ 10 7 ), very-HCF (VHCF) (N G ¼ 10 8-9 ), and ultra-HCF
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
