Hydrogen embrittlement, a serious problem of structural materials, is again increasing its importance with recent energy-saving technologies such as high-strengthening of materials and hydrogen-energy systems. While hydrogen embrittlement has long history of diverse studies, the estab- lishment of common bases in methodologies and fundamen- tal concepts is still a crucial and urgent matter. Substantial studies have been conducted recently in Japan under nation- al projects and group studies by ISIJ for the assessment and revealing the mechanism of hydrogen embrittlement.
