The present paper studied the influence of hydrogen on the mechanical properties and microstructure of the materials. This study is done by doing hydrogen charging of steel bar specimens. The two types of steel are used for study, structural steel S235 and stainless steel 316L. The tensile test has been performed to get the data of the charged and uncharged specimens. Different strain rates were used to study the effect of the material after charging. The charging time ranged from 24 hours to 144 hours. The specimens are cylindrical shape. Digital image analysis is performed for the uncharged specimens to correctly analyse the strain field and compare it with the results from tensile test. For DIC analysis a GOM correlate software was used to study the 2D strain analysis of the specimen. The results show that hydrogen influences the mechanical properties of the material and microstructure.
