Hydrogen Assisted Fracture of 30MnB5 High Strength Steel: A Case Study
When steel components fail in service due to the intervention of hydrogen assisted cracking, discussion of the root cause arises. The failure is frequently blamed on component design, working conditions, the manufacturing process, or the raw material ...

Recommendations and rants regarding research on environmentally assisted cracking [PDF]
Controversies concerning mechanisms and kinetics of environmentally assisted cracking seem to be increasing despite (or because of?) the accumulating numbers of papers and the increasing capabilities of techniques used to study the phenomena.

A probabilistic fracture mechanics model for the tubing degradation of the Koeberg steam generators [PDF]
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 115-124).The susceptibility of Steam Generator (SG) Tubes (particularly tubes manufactured from Inconel 600) to primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC) has been a major concern to the nuclear industry ...
