Abstract
We analyze the role of hydrogen in the in-service degradation of structural steels under climatic temperature conditions on a series of model examples. We develop an experimental express method for the simulation of the process of degradation of steel based on the artificial strain aging of the metal after its preliminary electrolytic hydrogenation and combining various mechanisms of degradation (strain hardening, aging, and development of dissipated damage). The method changes the state of the metal similarly to its long-term operation and enables one to predict the susceptibility of steels after operation to corrosion cracking.
