A grip grip test 4 repeated for two additional grip failures at 72 and 110 K test 5 repeated for two additional grip failures at 91 and 133 K gage; but frequency ⫽ 16 Hz

AM gage; mean strain set during reverse transformation gage; mean strain set during forward transformation gage; mean strain set during forward transformation

macroscopically sharp interface that was tilted to the loading axis. This means that specimens cycled in region AM contain macroscopically sharp interfaces, whereas specimens cycled in regions A and M do not contain any such interfaces. It is likely that the stresses are singular at the edges where the phase boundary meets with the physical boundary of the specimen. This can be deduced from the extensive research on free edges in bimaterial composites, as discussed in Simha and Bhattacharya.[9] It then follows that the stress concentrations at the edges of the phase boundaries may be the primary reason for the low values of the cycles-to-failure for specimens cycled in the AM region. Future studies will examine whether there is a direct correlation between the location of the phase boundaries and the region of crack initiation.
