The Rare Earth (RE) containing magnesium alloys MglOGd and MglOGdlNd show after extrusion very good low cycle fatigue (LCF) properties. Considering extruded AZ31 as a possible benchmark alloy, life times as a function of LCF stress values are similar to the alloys investigated in this study. Mechanical properties determined in tension and compression show smaller values for both RE containing alloys. Therefore the LCF behavior is analyzed by the stress-strain hysteresis evaluation resulting in cyclic creep and plastic hardening or softening. LCF tests were strain controlled with amplitude of 0.5 % and 0.8 % at a frequency of 5 Hz. The fracture surfaces are examined by SEM, where the area of crack propagation and overload were of main interest. Micrographs of longitudinal cross sections reveal twinning along the region of crack propagation. The correlation between the amount of twins and the number of cycles is discussed.
