This chapter describes the increase in the mechanical properties of nanostructured metals and alloys by increasing the grain refinement up to a level at which the grain size volume begins influencing the dislocation generation and motion, leading to an inversion in such a behavior, well known asHall–Petch inversion. The microstructural and mechanical features of nanostructured materials strongly depend on the production techniques. The fatigue properties of materials are strongly governed by the grain size variation. Many experimental evidences can be presented both in the ultrafine and in the nanocrystalline (NC) regime. In general, grain refinement via equal‐channel angular pressing (ECAP) leads to an increase in fatigue properties in stress‐controlled tests. The primary mechanism responsible for the accelerated fatigue crack growth rate observed with decreasing grain size is the reduction in crack path deflection with grain refinement.
