Abstract
Standard S-N curves can be modified to account for all those factors that, like surface finish, load type, size etc., may have an effect on fatigue. However, the factors that will be treated in this chapter are not stress related, but are metallurgical and physical factors. All of them have something to do, either directly or indirectly, with the surface layer of the material.
