Transcrystalline Fatigue Failure

Transcrystalline Fatigue Failure

Transcrystalline Fatigue Failure

(OP)
We have a component that has failed and the report states that there has been a transcrystalline fatigue fracture of the component.
Any enlightenment on what mode of failure this is exactly would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

RE: Transcrystalline Fatigue Failure

This is the standard mode for metallic components subjected to cyclic loading.
