Abstract:Hydrogen Embrittlement is a phenomenon in which the presence of hydrogen can lead to various detrimental effects on the mechanical properties of the material. These effects include reduction in ductility, delayed fracture under constant loading, increase in fatigue crack initiation and growth rates, and subcritical cracking even below the threshold fracture toughness of the material. Fatigue is one of the most common modes of material nature during the operation of components during their service life. Hence i… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
