van Leeuwen, H.P. (author), de Rijk, P. (author), Boogers, J.A.M. (author), Huisman, H.N. (author), Wanhill, R.J.H. (author)Circumferentially notched round specimens of 4340 type steel have been plated in a galvanic bath known to be embrittling. The specimens were reclaimed by stripping and baking. Half the specimens were replated in a non-embrittling bath. Reclamation did not remove all traces of hydrogen embrittlement, but raised the threshold stress to such a...report 1979

de Graaf, E.A.B. (author), de Rijk, P. (author)The present report describes how fatigue cracks were produced in 102 specimens. After cracking these specimens were inspected non-destructively by means of eddy currents, ultrasonics. X-rays and penetrants, and the indications were recorded. Successively the specimens were exposed to corrosion whereafter the inspections were repeated. Upon...report 1978

de Rijk, P. (author), Schijve, J. (author)A second series of exploratory acoustic fatigue tests using a shaker. A second series of exploratory acoustic fatigue tests was carried out, again employing simple specimens mounted on a shaker. Strain measurements were compared with calculations. Crack growth initiated by a central notch was observed. A comparison was made between three types...report 1977
