Computational model for carbon diffusion and methane formation in a ferritic steel during hydrogen attack

Hydrogen attack is a material degradation process which involves partial dissolution of the microstructure in favor of the growth of methane-filled cavities. The various physical–chemical processes involved are strongly coupled. We present a numerical microstructural model for two of these processes...

Description
Summary:Hydrogen attack is a material degradation process which involves partial dissolution of the microstructure in favor of the growth of methane-filled cavities. The various physical–chemical processes involved are strongly coupled. We present a numerical microstructural model for two of these processes, based on a variational approach.
