Three-dimensional in situ observations of short fatigue crack growth in magnesium

Three-dimensional (3D) short fatigue crack growth behaviour in a cast magnesium alloy, Elektron 21, was studied using a combination of X-ray diffraction contrast tomography (DCT) and microtomography at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility. A 3D map of grain shapes and crystallographic orienta...
