Which outcome occurs when excessive preheating induces grain growth during die forging of a steel alloy?

💡 Explanation

Reduced fatigue life occurs because accelerated grain growth weakens grain boundaries through the Hall-Petch effect; therefore the material fractures more easily under cyclic loading rather than exhibiting improved mechanical properties.
