The material response of polycrystalline materials under cyclic loading is not fully understood. Even during uniaxial loading, individual grains embedded within the polycrystalline material can experience complicated strain histories. By quantifying the deformation state at the crystal level, we can begin to understand the conditions that lead to fatigue failure. An in situ powder diffraction method was developed and employed at the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source to measure the aggregate crystal response at various points in a material's life using synchrotron x ray. A set of experiments was conducted using a load frame capable of exerting cyclic uniaxial loads on a specimen. A high speed x-ray shutter was developed to synchronize the x-ray beam and the loading cycle. Using the high speed shutter, the evolution of the lattice strains for the families of crystallographic planes was measured while the aggregate was under cyclic uniaxial loading, thus monitoring a live evolution of lattice strain in a cyclically loaded specimen. The methodology is demonstrated using uniaxial cyclic specimens machined from oxygen free conductivity (OFHC) copper sheet.
