Electrolytic In-Process Dressing (ELID) has attracted a lot of attention in recent years as it is a promising method of grinding a wide range of materials, including ones that are difficult to machine, to high quality ...

Duplex stainless steels are finding increasing use in seawater applications, but are prone to attack by crevice corrosion. A mechanism of deaeration and acidification is thought to produce locally aggressive conditions within ...

The microstructure of high strength steel is susceptible to delayed failure caused by the absorption of hydrogen produced either during cathodic charging or electroplating. When 0.8%C and AISI 4340 steel are subjected ...

Electroplated cadmium coatings are widely used in the aerospace industry to provide corrosion protection for components such as fasteners, which are manufactured from high strength steels. Due to environmental and safety ...

Cadmium electroplating is widely used in the aerospace industry for the corrosion protection of aircraft components like fasteners manufactured from non corrosion resisting high strength steels. However, environmental and ...

Flexible plastic liners are sometimes installed into new and existing oil and gas pipelines to prevent corrosion of the pipe wall. A practical difficulty of this method is that the plastic liners are permeable to gases, ...

A novel gel-filled electrochemical hydrogen probe was developed and used to measure hydrogen concentrations in carbon-manganese steels. The results were compared with those from an electrochemical permeation technique ...

300M ultra high strength steel has been widely used for over forty years as a structural material in aerospace applications where a high strength is required. These parts are generally protected from corrosion by electroplated ...

During the anaerobic corrosion of steel, hydrogen sulphide (H2S) evolution by the Sulphate-Reducing Bacteria (SRB) promotes hydrogen absorption by enhancing cathodic hydrogen evolution and inhibiting the combination of ...

Eddy current testing has become a widely used nondestructive technique for material testing and evaluation. This technique depends on the interaction between the impedance of the test coil and the material as the probe ...
