Abstract As a significant cause of disastrous accidents, stress corrosion cracking (SCC) under elastic loads was investigated in type 316 L single-crystal stainless steel immersed boiling 45 wt% MgCl 2 solution. Three-dimensional microcrack morphologies, characterized using synchrotron-based X-ray computed tomography, indicate that the SCC advanced along cleavage planes (1 0 0) with lowest free...

Natural gas (NG) is one of the widely used domestic fuels in most of the countries, and because of economical and environmental advantages, its consumption is continuously increasing. As a result, complex piping systems are being installed to transport and distribute the gas for end users. Pipelines carrying NG are a significant source of hazard for their adjacent society. The risk of this haza...

This work applies machine learning to holistically interrogate the influence of metallurgical factors, such as chemical composition, heat treatment, and mechanical properties, on stress corrosion cracking resistance corrosion-resistant alloys. Particularly, we explored effect nickel in reducing susceptibility boiling magnesium chloride, arguably a controversial topic since Copson’s 1959 seminal...
