TLDR
In this paper, a numerical simulation method for the coupling between stress and hydrogen diffusion is proposed, based on the diffusion equation including a hydrostatic stress gradient term, and on a discretisation of the hydrogen concentration field.

Hydrogen Embrittlement Understood

TL;DR: The connection between hydrogen-enhanced plasticity and the hydrogen-induced fracture mechanism and pathway is established through examination of the evolved microstructural state immediately beneath fracture surfaces including voids, quasi-cleavage, and intergranular surfaces as discussed by the authors.

Recent developments in the study of hydrogen embrittlement: Hydrogen effect on dislocation nucleation

TL;DR: In this paper, the intrinsic complexities of the experimental examination of hydrogen embrittlement are discussed and an experimental approach, in situ electrochemical nanoindentation, is proposed and performed on different materials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Grain size and grain-boundary effects on diffusion and trapping of hydrogen in pure nickel

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of grain size on hydrogen diffusion and trapping mechanisms was investigated for a wide range of grain sizes of non-textured pure nickel, and the effects of grain boundaries on different defects and trapping sites stored in the GBs, and their consequences on hydrogen transport and segregation.

The Determination of the Elastic Field of an Ellipsoidal Inclusion, and Related Problems

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that to answer several questions of physical or engineering interest, it is necessary to know only the relatively simple elastic field inside the ellipsoid.

Hydrogen-enhanced localized plasticity—a mechanism for hydrogen-related fracture

TL;DR: In this article, a theory of hydrogen shielding of the interaction of dislocations with elastic stress centres is outlined, which can account for the observed hydrogen-enhanced dislocation mobility.

Ductile versus brittle behaviour of crystals

TL;DR: In this article, a necessary criterion for brittle fracture in crystals is established, in terms of the spontaneous emission of dislocations from an atomically sharp cleavage crack, and the stability of a sharp crack against emission of a blunting dislocation for a number of crystals and crystal types in two dimensions and the energy to form a stable loop of dislocation from the crack tip in three dimensions.

Equilibrium aspects of hydrogen-induced cracking of steels

TL;DR: In this paper, the threshold pressures, p ∗, of hydrogen and of deuterium gases necessary to cause crack propagation in AISI 4340 steel of 250 ksi yield strength, were determined as functions of plane-strain stress intensity factor K at room temperature.

Environmentally Assisted Cracking: Overview of Evidence for an Adsorption-Induced Localised-Slip Process,

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that hydrogen-assisted cracking occurs because adsorption facilitates the injection of dislocations from crack tips and thereby promotes the coalescence of cracks with voids ahead of cracks.
