Development of Mechanistic-Empirical Principles for Jointed Plain Concrete Pavement Fatigue Design
… bottom-up transverse, longitudinal, and corner cracking were found to be critical fatigue mechanisms depending on the pavement geometry, climatic zone, and material parameters selected. These results are in contrast to the assumed bottom-up, mid-slab transverse cracking mechanisms, which are …

Natural Gas Generation Potential of the Wufeng-Longmaxi and Niutitang Shale Formations, Sichuan Basin, China: Insight from Hydrous and Anhydrous Pyrolysis
… potential based on conventional thermal cracking mechanism. Source rocks which underwent hydrous pyrolysis generated 5 – 77 times greater yields of gas compared to anhydrous Rock-Eval pyrolysis. The Silurian consistently produced 2 - 10 times greater yields of gas through hydrous …

High temperature cracking of nickel chromium austenitic steels.
… detailed classification of high temperature weld cracking is proposed. Two major types of cracking are recognised: Type 1 - separations along boundaries decorated with liquated second phase resulting from microsegregation, (solidification cracking in the weld metal and liquation cracking in the …

Influence of heat treatment condition on the stress corrosion cracking properties of low pressure turbine blade steel FV520B
Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is a corrosion phenomenon which continues to plague the power generating industry especially in low pressure (LP) steam turbine blades operating in the phase transition zone. An investigation has therefore been conducted to examine the effect of heat treatment …

Weldability and hydrogen relationships in super duplex stainless steel.
… materials. A study has been made of the hydrogen cracking behaviour in welded super duplex stainless steel using the GTA welding process. The aim of this work was to determine the effects of diffusible hydrogen levels and cracking sensitivity in super duplex stainless steel. Based upon the study …

Investigation of Weldability in High-Cr Ni-base Filler Metals
… been affected by primary water stress corrosion cracking. During welding, defects may result from super-solidus and sub-solidus cracking phenomena. The ability to evaluate and quantify the degree to which a given alloy is susceptible to each cracking mechanism is of great importance in alloy …

Directed energy deposition of tool steel/copper alloy multi-material structures
… nickel buffer (H13/Ni/CuBe), aiming to minimize cracking issues. The morphology of single-track, single-layer, and multi-layer specimens is analyzed. The microstructure of deposited specimens is also investigated, along with its mechanical and thermal properties, such as microhardness, wear …
