Characteristics of corrosion fatigue failures of steam turbine blades derived from failure analysis are summarized. Then corrosion fatigue variables on corrosion fatigue strength of 12% chromium stainless steel are briefly reviewed. The paper emphasizes initiation and growth of corrosion pits in the

The micromechanics of crack initiation and early growth in 4340 steel is studied using the SEM, and it is found that growth is discontinuous and transgranular, with the distance between growth steps corresponding to the prior austenite grain size spread. The lowest observed growth rate is approximat
## Abstract Stress corrosion crack velocity and stress corrosion threshold stress intensity have been measured for 18Crβ10Niβ0,5Ti stainless steel in relation to environmental variations. These studies showed that both stage I and stage II growth rate dependence on K are influenced by environmental
The crack propagation velocity in corroGon fatigue (du/dN), were measured on the Ni-Cr-Mo steel quenched and tempered at 473 or 773 K. The steel with high sensitivity to delayed failure reveals the largest (du/dN), under square load and the smaller (da/dN), under positive saw tooth load. The frequen
