System and method for monitoring environmental weakening of components by monitoring atomic hydrogen permeation

摘要

System comprising at least one component (10) for an application in which it is subjected to Hertzian stress or alternating Hertzian stress or altering Hertzian stress in combination with structural stress and at least one sensor (20) that is arranged in situ to monitor atomic hydrogen permeation through at least part of said at least one component (10).
