Redesigned for increased accessibility, this fourth edition of the bestselling Introduction to
the Design and Behavior of Bolted Joints has been divided into two separate but …

The scope of this work is to explore innovative microstructure typologies, as well as heat
treatments, for the manufacturing of high-strength steel fasteners aimed at obtaining a …

Hydrogen-induced delayed fracture (HIDF) behaviour of a V+ Nb microalloyed 1300-GPa-
grade high-strength bolt steel was explored by slow strain rate tensile (SSRT) tests under …

One of the recurring anomalies in the hydrogen induced fracture of high strength steels is
the apparent disconnect between their toughness and uniaxial tensile strength in identical …

A two-fold approach is considered to study hydrogen (H) diffusion characteristics in
martensitic steels. Initially, a multi-trap stress coupled H diffusion finite element model was …

The effect of cathodic polarization on stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of 35CrMo steel for
high strength fasteners in seawater was investigated by electrochemical measurement, slow …

High strength low alloy (HSLA) steels with tempered martensite microstructure are widely
applied in the offshore industry such as fasteners. The subsea environment conditions are …

Incremental step load (ISL) technique was used to determine the material susceptibility of
three different grades of tempered martensite steels 35CrMo4, 41Cr4 and 36NiCrMo4 to …

Electrochemical machining (ECM) is an important technology in machining difficult-to-cut
materials. The contactless nature of ECM and anodic dissolution of the workpiece propound …

A stress coupled hydrogen diffusion finite element model has been developed to simulate
incremental step load (ISL) test. It is further integrated with a cohesive zone model (CZM) …
