Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years it has been recognized that engineering materials that are-tough and ductile can be rendered susceptible to premature fracture through their reaction with the environment. Over 100 years ago, Reynolds associated hydrogen with detrimental effects on the ductility of iron. The "season cracking" of brass has been a known problem for dec ades, but the mechanisms for this stress-corrosion process are only today being elucidated. In more recent times, the mechanical properties of most engineering materials have been shown to be adversely affected by hydrogen embrittlement or stress-corrosion cracking. Early studies of environmental effects on crack growth attempted to identify a unified theory to explain the crack growth behavior of groups of materials in a variety of environments. It is currently understood that there are numerous stress-corrosion processes some of which may be common to several materials, but that the crack growth behavior of a given material is dependent on microstructure, microchemistry, mechanics, surface chemistry, and solution chemistry. Although the mechanism by which various chemical species in the environment may cause cracks to propagate in some materials but not in others is very complex, the net result of all environmentally induced fracture is the reduction in the force and energy associated with the tensile or shear separation of atoms at the crack tip.

Download or read book Fundamentals of Hydrogen Embrittlement written by Michihiko Nagumo and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-01-27 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first comprehensive treatment of hydrogen embrittlement of metallic materials, mainly of steels. The subject is increasingly important with regard to recent requirements for hydrogen energy equipment. Recent progress in revealing the nature of hydrogen embrittlement is remarkable, and this book provides students and researchers engaging in hydrogen problems with a comprehensive view of hydrogen embrittlement covering basic behaviors of hydrogen in materials and their various manifestations in degradation of mechanical properties. Previous studies are critically reviewed and recent advances including new ideas on the mechanism of embrittlement are presented. Emphases are put on experimental facts, but their meanings rather than phenomenological appearance are given particular attention. Experiments are noted on adopted conditions since the operating mechanism of hydrogen might differ by materials and environments. For theories, assumptions and premises employed are noted so as to examine their versatility. Because of the interdisciplinary nature of the subject, brief descriptions of fundamental ideas are presented when necessary.

Download or read book Environment Induced Cracking of Metals Proceedings of the International Conference 1st Held in Kohler Wisconsin on October 2 7 1988 written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 601 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Identification of consensus issues is undoubtedly controversial. Many of the written comments from participants suggested that no true consensus was reached on any particular aspect of environmental cracking! This camp believes that while we may have progressed somewhat in our appreciation o the various environmental cracking phenomena since the Firminy meeting, we have not reached any true understanding of the phenomena as a whole. This view proposes that continued, often unsubstantiated and qualitative, debate on the details of a variety of mechanisms hinders our progress toward material and component performance predictions. This situation, more than anything else, makes for frustration within the engineering design community. A second camp of participants concludes that substantial progress has been made since Firminy. Much of the speculation of the 1970s has been replaced by quantitative experimental evidence. Quantitative and testable models are emerging, with focus on specific embrittlement mechanisms that are relevant to classes of alloys and environments. Meaningful life predictions may be developed to include environmental cracking. The critical importance of crack chemistry and crack-tip process-zone deformation and fracture has spawned new models and experimental probes. Those with this view do not believe that all problems are solved, but rather that the field is generally on the right track. Useful information is being made available for the user, but improvements and new ideas are, of course, still required.
Download or read book Microchemistry and Mechanics Issues in Stress Corrosion Cracking written by DR. Baer and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmentally induced subcritical crack growth occurs in most metallic ma terials given the appropriate material, environment, and stress conditions. Much is known about the conditions which cause stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in metallic materials, but much less is known about the processes which control environment-induced crack initiation and propagation. There is presently no description of the flaw length, flaw shape, and local chemistry conditions that coincide with the transition from a localized corrosion phenomenon and the initiation of a crack. Although there have been considerable attempts to describe the rate-limiting steps in crack propagation, a number of issues are unresolved, including specifics about the crack-tip conditions, crack length effects, processes controlling the Stage I SCC region, and details about the crack advance processes in both transgranular stress corrosion cracking (TGSCC) and intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC). A summary of these unresolved issues and some analysis of their effect on SCC is given in this paper.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corrosion of nuclear materials, i.e. the interaction between these materials and their environments, is a major issue for plant safety as well as for operation and economic competitiveness. Understanding these corrosion mechanisms, the systems and materials they affect, and the methods to accurately measure their incidence is of critical importance to the nuclear industry. Combining assessment techniques and analytical models into this understanding allows operators to predict the service life of corrosion-affected nuclear plant materials, and to apply the most appropriate maintenance and mitigation options to ensure safe long term operation. This book critically reviews the fundamental corrosion mechanisms that affect nuclear power plants and facilities. Initial sections introduce the complex field of nuclear corrosion science, with detailed chapters on the different types of both aqueous and non aqueous corrosion mechanisms and the nuclear materials susceptible to attack from them. This is complemented by reviews of monitoring and control methodologies, as well as modelling and lifetime prediction approaches. Given that corrosion is an applied science, the final sections review corrosion issues across the range of current and next-generation nuclear reactors, and across such nuclear applications as fuel reprocessing facilities, radioactive waste storage and geological disposal systems.
