Abstract: In order to improve the fatigue properties of the steel component used in high speed railway and oil exploration, the bainite/martensite (B/M) multiphase high strength steels with excellent fatigue properties have been developed. Many results showed that the very high cycle fatigue (VHCF) property of B/M steels is less sensitive to the inclusion than that of conventional tempered martensite steels. Hence, both non-inclusion and inclusion-induced crack initiations occurred in the B/M steels under VHCF test. The microstructure morphologies, i.e., phase types, microstructure homogeneity and refinement degree,could influence the non-inclusion induced crack initiation. The VHCF crack initiation sites are determined by the competition between the inclusion level and the microstructure morphologies of the B/M steels. Enhanced VHCF properties of B/M steels have been achieved through coordinated adjustment of physical and/or chemical metallurgy treatment (e.g., microstructure optimization and inclusion size reduction). The mechanism of non-inclusion induced crack initiations is also discussed.
