Abstract
This research aims to study the SCC fracture dynamics of a AISI 304 steel in 42wt% MgCl2 solution at temperature at 413±4K using the advanced acoustic emission (AE) signal processing. AE signals (out-plane displacement) from the Mode-I fracture were monitored by the special AE monitoring system. Source wave was estimated by using the transfer function experimentally determined. It was revealed that the brittle fracture in size of 10 to 40μm generated at the maximum velocity of 40m/s.
