HIGHLIGHTS
- What: The paper presents an analysis of the low-cycle fatigue (LCF) properties of C45 X20Cr13 and 34CrNiMo6 subjected to various treatment processes. The aim of this work was to experimentally determine the influence of the heat treatment process on LCF characteristics for C45, X20Cr13, and 34CrNiMo6 steels and to analyze the possible applicability of indentation force P* as a potential discriminant parameter of material features. The constant indentation depth h*=4 µm, assumed in the present study, was based on the previous results carried out for X20Cr13 steel that have been used in comparative studies.
