Accurate identification of active damage mechanisms is fundamental to effective asset integrity management. Our Damage Mechanism Identification service focuses on determining the physical, metallurgical, mechanical, and environmental processes responsible for material degradation throughout the service life of industrial equipment.
Our investigations address a broad spectrum of degradation phenomena, including corrosion, erosion, fatigue, creep, hydrogen damage, thermal degradation, embrittlement, stress corrosion cracking, microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC), and high-temperature deterioration.
Through laboratory analysis, field data evaluation, and industry-specific expertise, we help clients understand degradation risks, establish inspection strategies, optimize maintenance intervals, and implement effective mitigation measures before failures occur.
