Stress Corrosion Cracking in Materials
Opis
Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) causes sudden failure of metals and other materials subjected to stress in a corrosive environment, especially at elevated temperatures. The problem affects industries such as petrochemical and nuclear power production. This book is divided into four parts looking at the mechanisms of stress corrosion cracking, how it affects particular metals and the ways it can be monitored and managed in particular industries.
