Comparable investigation of pore-induced defects during in-phase (IP) and out-of-phase (OP) thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF) were conducted on fourth-generation single crystal superalloy. It was discovered that recrystallizations and deformation twins would take shape near micro-pores at IP and OP cy...
