N2 - Near-threshold fatigue crack growth in high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel, Fe, and Fe-Si alloys was found to depend on test temperature from room temperature down to 123 K. Near-threshold crack growth rates were lowered and threshold stress intensity factors increased with decreasing temperature. A 'prominent' closure was observed for all test temperatures and materials and was further confirmed by the examination of fracture surfaces. The magnitude of closure increased with decreasing temperature, suggesting a dependence on yield strength and fracture morphology.
