Abstract

We studied the fatigue strength of lotus-type porous magnesium with cylindrical pores aligned unidirectionally, which was fabricated through unidirectional solidification in pressurized hydrogen atmospheres. The fatigue strength shows anisotropy; the fatigue strength in the direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of pores is higher than that in the perpendicular direction. Not only anisotropic pores but also fiber texture grown along the pore direction contributes to the anisotropy in the fatigue strength.
