were made by a random intercept method for each sample. The range of measured values and the mean value obtained are shown in Fig. 1. Similar results on the effect of grain size on fatigue strength have been previously observed in steel alloys ~ and in commercially pure titanium2 and although other variables were present in our tests such as the basic chemistry and percentage primary or, the present evidence indicates processing methods which result in finer ot grain sizes should be further investigated to improve the fatigue strength of titanium components. Fig. 2 presents a comparison of the ultimate tensile strength of these materials to the smooth specimen fatigue strengths. Althoughthe fatigue strength tends to increase with tensile strength, the percentage increase in fatigue strength is abnormally higher than the corresponding increase in tensile strength. For instance, although there was only a 17 pct difference in tensile strength, greater tha
