Summary:

The November 2000 symposium addressed methodologies for evaluation of environmental assisted cracking (EAC) in equipment and structures exposed to corrosive environments, and recent developments in the generation of relevant materials properties data based on laboratory tests. Twenty-seven papers from the symposium are collected in this volume. The seven plenary papers present current thought concerning mechanistic and predictive models for understanding EAC and materials performance. The remaining papers discuss prediction of irradiation assisted stress corrosion cracking performance in reactor cooling water systems, predicting EAC performance in industrial applications, EAC testing and in-service experiences, mechanistic studies for control of EAC, and engineering applications for new experimental and analytical methods. Topics include prediction of conditions leading to stress corrosion cracking of gas transmission lines, the role of cyclic pre-loading on hydrogen assisted cracking of carbon steel, the use of Raman spectroscopy to investigate surface films on stainless steels in acidic and chloride- containing media, and premature failures of copper alloy valves and fittings in the New York City water supply system.
