After forging of turbine blades, which consequence results when residual stress gradient concentrates near the blade's edge?

💡 Explanation

Localized corrosion occurs due to increased electrochemical potential at stressed regions, because the **stress corrosion cracking** mechanism accelerates material breakdown in high-stress zones; therefore crack propagation occurs, rather than the blade entering a higher energy state with improved qualities.
