Fatigue in multilayered steels by Kumar, Punit, Msolli, Sabeur, Jhon, Mark H., Ramamurty, Upadrasta

“…While the quasistatic tensile stress-strain responses of both the sheets are nearly-identical, fatigue strength of sheets with austenitic outer layers is substantially higher than those with martensitic layers, due mainly to the nature of residual stress distribution in the two sheets. …”
