Journal ArticleDOI
Pre-exposure embrittlement and stress corrosion failure in AlZnMg Alloys
TL;DR: In this article, it was found that a high purity Al-6%Zn-3%Mg alloy becomes embrittled if pre-exposed to moist gases prior to tensile testing.
Journal ArticleDOI
High voltage electron metallography of stress corrosion cracking of austenitic stainless steels
Geoff Scamans,P.R. Swann +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, high voltage electron metallographic studies of stress corrosion cracks nucleated on miniature U-bend specimens of austenitic stainless steels support an anodic dissolution mechanism of cracking.
Journal ArticleDOI
The electron irradiation induced corrosion of silicon
H.M. Flower,P.R. Swann +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the electron irradiation induced aqueous corrosion of silicon has been studied, in situ, in a million volt electron microscope, and the observations are consistent with a reaction model involving the passage of water molecules through the silica film and reacting, in the presence of the electron beam, with the silicon surface.
