Summary
In this chapter, the formation of micro and nano-sized martensite particles and their application to materials strengthening are described. The size of martensite can be controlled by the control of dislocation density and temperature. It is implied that the nucleation site of martensite is the intersection of two partial dislocations, however, further studies are necessary. Fatigue strength increased especially in the high cycle regime including fatigue limit due to the existence of nano-sized martensite particles.
