Phys. Rev. Lett. 50, 1285–1288 (1983)Semiempirical, Quantum Mechanical Calculation of Hydrogen Embrittlement in MetalsReceived 3 February 1983; published in the issue dated 25 April 1983 A new, semiempirical model of metals and impurities (embedded atom method) makes possible a static treatment of the brittle fracture of a transition metal in the presence of hydrogen. Results indicate that hydrogen can reduce the fracture stress in nickel. © 1983 The American Physical Society URL:
