Redesigned for increased accessibility, this fourth edition of the bestselling Introduction to
the Design and Behavior of Bolted Joints has been divided into two separate but …

Hydrogen and electricity are the leading energy sources for most applications in the near
future. With the rapid development of computers and computational chemistry methods, the …

The focus of this study is to analyze hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility of a modified AISI
4130 steel by means of incremental step loading tests. Three different microstructures with a …

The effect of different tempering temperatures on the hydrogen embrittlement (HE)
resistance of a V+ Nb-microalloyed medium-carbon bolt steel was studied by slow strain rate …

The effect of cathodic polarization on stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of 35CrMo steel for
high strength fasteners in seawater was investigated by electrochemical measurement, slow …

High-strength steel fasteners characterized by tensile strengths above 1100 MPa are often
used in critical applications where a failure can have catastrophic consequences …

High strength low alloy (HSLA) steels with tempered martensite microstructure are widely
applied in the offshore industry such as fasteners. The subsea environment conditions are …

Incremental step load (ISL) technique was used to determine the material susceptibility of
three different grades of tempered martensite steels 35CrMo4, 41Cr4 and 36NiCrMo4 to …

A stress coupled hydrogen diffusion finite element model has been developed to simulate
incremental step load (ISL) test. It is further integrated with a cohesive zone model (CZM) …

A novel approach has been developed for quantitative evaluation of the susceptibility of
steels and alloys to hydrogen embrittlement. The approach uses a combination of hydrogen …
