Fatigue tests on unnotched specimens under constant strain amplitude loading were carried out in the temperature range of 400 degree C to 760 degree C without and with hold times in order to determine the monotonic and cyclic stress-strain and failure behaviour including crack initiation and propagation of short cracks starting from natural material defects. Additional CT- specimen tests showed that the crack propagation rate of short cracks is much higher than that of long cracks.enconstant amplitude loadingcrack propagationEinstufenbeanspruchungfatigue behaviourfatigue strengthhigh temperaturehohe TemperaturKurzrißKurzzeitfestigkeitlow cycle fatigue strengthnickel alloyNickellegierungRißfortschrittSchwingfestigkeitSchwingfestigkeitsverhaltenshort crackungekerbte Probeunnotched specimen620conference paper
