A three dimensional grain mapping technique for polycrystalline materials, called X-ray diffraction contrast tomography (DCT), was developed at SPring-8 (Super Photon ring-8 GeV), which is the brightest synchrotron radiation facility in Japan. To evaluate the fatigue damage of grains, total misorientation, β for each grain was calculated from DCT measurement. It is found that value of β increases with number of cycles, and change of β for primary slip plane is the largest in diffraction planes. In addition, the largest change of β, was observed in the diffraction plane with the largest Schmid factor, F_s in equivalent primary slip planes. From this results, it is found that change of β reflects slip behavior in a grain, because change of β correspond to Schmid factor in fcc materials which can be determined the primary slip direction.
