Plastic zone evolution near a crack tip and its role in environmentally assisted crackingThis paper analyzes the effects of crack tip plastic strains and compressive residual stresses, createdby fatigue pre-cracking, on environmentally assisted cracking of pearlitic steel subjected to localized anodicdissolution and hydrogen assisted fracture....
Environmentally assisted cracking paths in cold drawn... This affects the posterior behaviour of the steels under environmentally assisted cracking (EAC) conditions....
Preliminary study about the state of superficial layer by environmentally assisted cracking and possibilities of predictionThis paper presents and discusses the mechanism to produce corrosion pits and cracks from corrosion pits in case of environmentally assisted cracking (EAC)....
Environmentally assisted cracking behavior of s420 and x80 steels containing u-notches at two different cathodic polarization levels: an approach from the theory of critical distancesThis paper analyzes, using the theory of critical distances, the environmentally assisted cracking behavior of two steels (S420 and API X80) subjected to two different aggressive environments....
