Hydrogen embrittlement was studied from the viewpoint of the interaction of hydrogen with the stress field of particles. The interaction between dislocation loops was studied to include shear components of the Burgers vector. It turned out that this additional component could stabilize both the cuboidal arrangement and the stair-step configuration of square dislocation loops. These results were used to explain certain precipitation morphologies. Equipment improvements are reported. The only creep results obtained so far were the temperature and stress dependences of penetration velocity on a beta-tin single crystal, and the stress dependences of lead and succinonitrile polycrystals. They agree with literature data. (DLC
