AB - The fatigue life and crack propagation behaviour of structural steels (AISI 201 stainless steel and AISI 1020 low carbon steel) were investigated. Fatigue tests were carried out to determine fatigue life. The data obtained from these tests were then modelled using XFEM integrated ABAQUS model. At the stress amplitude of 139.09 MPa, it was observed that fracture occurred after 400 cycles for the AISI 201 steel grade and 200 cycles for the AISI 1020 steel grade. Based on the experimental results obtained, AISI 201 stainless steel possesses better fatigue life, higher hardness value and greater impact strength. Microstructural characteristics of AISI 201 stainless steel, and AISI 1020 low carbon steel samples revealed that AISI 201 stainless steel sample possesses finer grains and notches of smaller depth, compare to AISI 1020 low carbon steel sample, which could have been responsible for its superior mechanical properties. AISI 201 stainless steel would considerably be a better material for most structural applications compared to AISI 1020 low carbon steel.
