Besides visual examination, other experimental techniques used for the investigation are： 1） fracture characteristics, damage morphology and fractography by scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, 2） spectrum analysis of covering, 3） metallographic observation of cracks and 4） hydrogen content testing. The results are obtained through the analysis of manufacture process and experimental data. Since no changes of microstructure are found, failures are irrelevant to the material. The cracks and fractures initiate on the inner surface, cracks initiate before the cadmium plating and after the winding. No obvious stress corrosion cracks are found near the crack source region. The opening direction of cracks is consistent with the residual tensile stress of the spring inner surface, and the springs are easy to contact hydrogen media between the spring winding and the cadmium plating. The cracks are caused by hydrogen-induced delayed cracking under the action of the residual tensile stress and hydrogen.展开更多

A comprehensive strategy has been formulated, centering on utilizing the country's energy potential to drive progress in this vital sector. Morocco is considered a country with abundant thermal water, indicating deep reservoirs with significant hydrothermal potential. Geothermal zones were selected based on the abundance of hot springs where water temperatures were high and geothermal gradients were significant. The abundance and importance of hot springs, combined with recent volcanism and ongoing non-tectonic activity linked to alpine orogeny, strongly suggest that these regions are promising reservoirs for geothermal energy. This great potential also extends to neighboring countries. In northeast and south Morocco, the temperature of thermal water ranges from 26 to 54℃. This study serves as an inclusive review of the geothermal potentialities in Morocco.展开更多
