Abstract
A common and intricate phenomenon known as hydrogen
embrittlement of steel is the deterioration of the mechanical
properties of metal in relation to stress corrosion cracking.
This phenomenon has been extensively studied, with numer
ous works proposed over the last two decades, but there is
still a lack of unified solutions and a solid understanding of
the phenomenon. The purpose of this paper is to provide a
review of the literature and publications on hydrogen
embrittlement in steel. It focuses on recent developments
and methods that have contributed to a better understand
ing of the relationship between steel structure, properties,
and performance, with a particular emphasis on hydrogen
diffusion, characterisation, mechanisms, and prevention of
hydrogen embrittlement in structural steel. Furthermore,
the paper discusses recent advances in experimental and
multi-scale modelling and proposes future studies to address
challenges related to hydrogen embrittlement in steels.
