Quasi-Static Brittle Fracture
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
Recent work on the phenomenon of diffusion-controlled quasi-static brittle fracture, known as dynamic embrittlement, is reviewed here with reference to sulfur-induced embrittlement of steel, tin-induced embrittlement of Cu-Sn alloys, and oxygen-induced embrittlement of copper-based and nickel-based alloys. The mechanisms of this generic form of intergranular brittle fracture are discussed.
