Abstract: | Effects of high temperature strain controlled push-pull fatigue on the microstructure and mechanical properties of a nickel-base
precipitation hardened alloy were studied. The fatigue deformation alone at 700 °C did not impair the mechanical properties
of this alloy; however, a hold period ranging from one minute to one hour at tension-peak decreased the tensile ductility
and the fracture toughness significantly. This was mainly attributed to grain boundary cavitation. Continuous fatigue resulted
in dislocation bands, whereas hold-time fatigue caused a coherency loss iny’ precipitates. Implications of these microstructural changes for the residual mechanical properties are discussed.
