Abstract: Large changes in strength and ductility of metals after irradiation are known to occur. The fracture toughness of irradiated metals, which is related to the combined strength and ductility of ...

Abstract: The presence of a critical concentration of sulfides at the tip of a crack is thought to be a prerequisite for environmentally assisted cracking (EAC) in low-alloy steels. Sulfides can be ...

Abstract: The concept of mechanical equation of state is reviewed based on experimental results on 1100 aluminum alloy. It is applied to describe the effects of cold work on creep and creep rupture ...

Abstract: The effect of water flow rate upon the environmentally assisted cracking (EAC) response of a high-sulfur ferritic steel was studied at a temperature of 243°C. In contrast to earlier studies ...

Abstract: Corrosion fatigue crack propagation tests were conducted on a high-sulfur ASTM A302-B plate steel overlaid with weld-deposited Alloy EN82H cladding. The specimens featured semi-elliptical surface ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of inelastic analysis performed to calculate the deformation of a thin-walled tube subjected to a variety of loadings at elevated temperatures. A state variable ...
