Hydrogen is an essential part of the future of net zero emissions. Cryogenic tanks and distribution pipes are used to store and transport/distribute liquified hydrogen at cryogenic temperatures as demonstrated in space industry and will be used in future hydrogen economy. Understanding hydrogen embrittlement of structural alloys is key for the safe use of hydrogen. The aim of this PhD project is to gain an enhanced understanding of hydrogen embrittlement at cryogenic temperatures of advanced materials via multi-scale in situ mechanical testing methodologies. The proposed research involves the development and implementation of new in situ hydrogen charging and mechanical characterization tools and methods. The results from the work will have continuously positive impact on the green growth of the UK's economy.

氢气是未来净零排放的重要组成部分。低温储罐和分配管用于在低温下储存和运输/分配液化氢，如在航天工业中所证明的，并且将用于未来的氢经济。了解结构合金的氢脆是安全使用氢的关键。这个博士项目的目的是通过多尺度原位机械测试方法，增强对先进材料在低温下氢脆的理解。拟议的研究涉及新的原位充氢和机械表征工具和方法的开发和实施。这项工作的成果将对英国经济的绿色增长产生持续的积极影响。
