Abstract

Monotonic and cyclic stress-strain behavior and strain-life resistance of a 1% nickel steel at 188HB are reported. The material cyclically hardens and exhibits a behavior comparable to most high strength low alloy steels of similar hardness. Periodic incremental overstraining reduces life by approximately an order of magnitude.
