Abstract Thiosulfate ion was used as a substitute for hydrogen sulfide (H2S) to simulate stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of corrosion-resistant alloys (CRAs) and (SSC) high-strength, low-alloy steels. Several SCC tests using variety application techniques showed the brine containing thiosulfate exhibited similar severity H2S in regard when plastic strain applied CRAs. Materials that susceptibility agreed well those H2S. Types 304 (UNS S30400) 316L S31603) stainless steels duplex steel both...
Mixed extension has played an important role in game theory, especially the proof of existence Nash equilibria strategic form games. can be regarded as continuous relaxation a game. Recently, repeated games, class behavior strategies, called zero-determinant was introduced. Zero-determinant strategies unilaterally enforce linear relations between payoffs, and are used to control payoffs players. There many attempts extend so apply them broader situations.

The paper describes how the propagation loss /spl alpha/ of leaky surface acoustic wave (LSAW) is dependent upon Al thickness h grating electrodes and rotation angle theta/ for rotated Y-X LiTaO/sub 3/. Since energy leak LSAW originates from coupling slow-shear field component with other components through boundary conditions, zero can be realised when decoupled. This means that optimal giving should change as well electrical conditions. relatively large 0.07-0.1 wavelengths needed present...
