Given the need to transport and store hydrogen for hydrogen energy applications as well as the benefits of designing high strength alloys resistant to environmentally-assisted cracking, there are substantial research and development efforts on hydrogen embrittlement. This issue will showcase both fundamental and industrially-relevant research on hydrogen-microstructure interactions, hydrogen embrittlement, hydrogen detection, and other relevant topics from the 4th International Conference on Metals and Hydrogen (Steely Hydrogen).
