Research expertise

Effect of hydrogen on the properties of steels and alloys. Specific areas of interest are mechanical properties, phase transformations, defects of crystal lattice and electronic structure of steels and alloys doped by hydrogen.

-         we have studied the effect of alloying elements on hydrogen-induced phase transformations in cathodically charged iron-based alloys with fcc crystal lattice and shown the correlation of phase transformation degree with effect of alloying elements on SFE;
-         we have demonstrated by means of amplitude-dependent internal friction that hydrogen decreases critical stress at which dislocation sources start and increases dislocation mobility in austenitic steels, cathodically charged by hydrogen;
-         we have presented the mechanism of localization of plastic deformation due to hydrogen-induced vacancies;
-         based on ab initio calculations of electronic structures, we elaborated electronic conception of mechanism of hydrogen embrittlement which complements well known HELP mechanism

Other areas of interest: high nitrogen steels, metallic compounds in coal, biocompatible Zr-based alloys

Experimental methods: mechanical spectroscopy, nuclear gamma-resonance spectroscopy (Mossbauer s.), X-ray diffraction, thermal desorption analysis (TDA).

Projects
Participant of INTAS and STCU grant projects (“Hydrogen-resistant steel”(responsible executor), “Methane in Donetsk coal basin: formation mechanisms and precipitation kinetics”, “Wear-resistant steel with good corrosive properties”).

Scientific output

• 36 accepted papers in journals or books (list of publications is attached)
• Participated in many international and national conferences and meetings.
