Hydrogen Embrittlement and Stress Corrosion Cracking

Authors of fifteen papers analyse current problems and present their theories and the results of research projects. Contents include: Hydrogen Degradation Phenomena Theories of Hydrogen-Induced Cracking of Steels Hydrogen Trapping in Iron and Steels Fracture Mechanics and Surface Chemistry Investigations of Environment-Assisted Crack Growth Role of Microstructure in Hydrogen Embrittlement Propagation of Stress Corrosion Cracks and Relevance to Proposed Mechanisms of Stress Corrosion Cracking Stress Corrosion Cracking of Ferritic and Austenitic Stainless Steels Fundamentals of Corrosion Fatigue Behavior of Metals and Alloys Hydrogen Permeation and Embrittlement Studies on Metallic Glasses Industrial Occurrence of Stress Corrosion Cracking and Means for Prediction.
