ENVIRONMENTAL REACTIONS OF ROCKET STEELS

Abstract

The research has been directed to the following goals: (1) To determine quickly the important parameters controlling stress corrosion in aqueous environments. (2) To adapt the electric resistance method of following crack initiation and propagation to the present investigation. This method should allow a detailed study of the events preceeding crack instability and fracture in both the presence and absence of corrosive environments.
