22. Conclusions Extreme grain refinement down to the sub-micron and nano-scopic scale improves the fatigue performance substantially.
Limited ductility of nano-materials determines the lower than expected low-cycle fatigue properties and crack growth resistance.
The full potential of achieving favourable combinations of grain refinement and other strengthening factors for further enhancement of fatigue performance has certainly not been explored and exploited in nano-materials.
A better understanding of the specific mechanisms underlying the response of these materials to cyclic loading may lead to microstructures optimised with respect to the fatigue performance and overall mechanical behaviour.
Control over impurity content and a judicious choice of a chemical composition and thermal treatment has the highest potential for the utmost high-cycle fatigue improvement
