Condition assessment of underground corroded pipelines subject to hydrogen damage and combined internal pressure and axial compression

In this work, a 3D finite element (FE) based model was developed to assess the condition of an underground hydrogen transmission pipeline containing a corrosion defect under combined internal pressure and soil movement-induced axial compression. The use of mechanical properties of X100 pipeline steel under different hydrogen charging time...

Multifunctional ZrB₂-rich Zr_1-xCr_xB_y thin films with enhanced mechanical, oxidation, and corrosion properties

Refractory transition-metal (TM) diborides have high melting points, excellent hardness, and good chemical stability. However, these properties are not sufficient for applications involving extreme environments that require high mechanical strength as well as oxidation and corrosion resistance. Here, we study the effect of Cr addition on the...
