An experiment testing the resilience of metal revealed nanoscale-level repair capabilities of metal, inspiring interesting engineering mediums.

Duplex steels combine the strength of ferritic and corrosion resistance of austenitic stainless steels in a twin-structure alloy. They both offer superior resistance to stress corrosion cracking, ...

Additionally, mechanisms such as hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC) and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) were observed to contribute to crack propagation in specific environmental conditions, as evidenced ...

Baker Hughes launched a joint technology program Petrobras to solve stress corrosion cracking due to CO2 in flexible pipe systems.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Holtec, the company wanting to reopen the Palisades nuclear reactor in Michigan, found corrosion cracking in steam generators "far exceeded" estimates, the U.S. nuclear power ...

In general, stress corrosion cracking leads to crack formation at stress levels below the yield stress of the material, typically well below the design tension and fatigue limit of a structural ...

The insulating vacuum within the ITER Cryostat has a prime purpose to minimize the heat load on the superconducting coil system by gas thermal conductivity. These coils are shielded from thermal ...

An article published in Corrosion Science utilized synchrotron XRF imaging and electron microscopy to investigate the mechanism of chloride-induced stress corrosion cracking (CISCC) in austenitic ...
