The Resistance of Some High Strength Steels to Slow Crack Growth in Salt Water

Abstract

The results of tests to determine the threshold stress intensity parameter values for crack growth in salt water of some high strength steels are given. A number of martensitic, maraging, and precipitation-hardening steels over a range of yield strengths are included.
