100 mechanisms, 10 categories
From uniform corrosion to creep, fatigue, environmental cracking and fabrication defects — organised so related mechanisms sit together.

Under reviewA categorised reference of 100 metal damage and failure mechanisms — each with a concise review, an original conceptual diagram, root-cause distinctions and source-qualified statistics.
Concise, comparable reviews
The same fields for every mechanism: where it occurs, what it affects, how to recognise it, what it is mistaken for, and how to tell them apart.
Honest about evidence
Statistics keep their denominator and source. Where representative data does not exist, the entry says so rather than inventing a number.
