Effects of dynamic strain aging on mechanical properties of SA508 class 3 reactor pressure vessel steel
An as-received reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steel SA508 class 3 (SA508 Cl.3) has been subjected to uniaxial tension tests in the strain-rate range of 6.67 × 10−5 s−1 to 1.2 × 10−2 s−1 and the temperature range o...

Role of dynamic strain aging in corrosion fatigue of low-alloy pressure vessel steel in high temperature water
Low cycle fatigue (LCF) behavior of an A533B-type low-alloy pressure vessel steel was investigated in 200 °C and 288 °C water. Major attention was paid to the role of dynamic strain aging (DSA) on corrosion fa...

Strain-amplitude dependent fatigue resistance of low-alloy pressure vessel steels in high-temperature water
Low cycle fatigue resistance of low-alloy pressure vessel steels was investigated in 561 K air and water over a wide strain amplitude range. It was found that fatigue resistance of the steels was enhanced in h...

Morphologies of coke deposited on surfaces of pure Ni and Fe-Cr-Ni-Mn alloys during pyrolysis of propane
Morphologies of coke deposited on pure Ni and Fe-Cr-Ni-Mn alloy surfaces during pyrolysis of propane at 750–1000°C have been investigated in detail. It is found that surface scales developed initially on pure ...
