1. Delayed Hydride Cracking in Irradiated Zircaloy
Sammanfattning : Under some circumstances nuclear fuel cladding tubes made from zirconium based alloys may develop long axial cracks. The formation of these cracks is mainly thought to be connected with the oxiditian and hydriding of the cladding which takes plage after the the formation of a small primary defect. LÄS MER
2. Modeling framework for ageing of low alloy steel
Sammanfattning : Ageing of low alloy steel in nuclear applications commonly takes the form as a hardening and an embrittlement of the material. This is due to the evolution of the microstructure during irradiation and at purely thermal conditions, as a combination or separate. LÄS MER
3. Modeling of structural integrity of aged low alloy steels using non-local mechanics
Sammanfattning : Ageing of low alloy steels affects the structural integrity assessment as it most commonly causes embrittlement and a hardening of the material. This is due to theevolution of the microstructure during operation in the specific application. LÄS MER
4. A Fracture Mechanics Approach to Study Hydrogen Embrittlement in High Strength Martensitic Steels
Sammanfattning : High strength steels that are subjected to hydrogen experience embrittlement where the mechanical properties are reduced, and premature failure of components may occur. Although the phenomenon has been recognized for over 150 years, it is not clear what drives embrittlement. LÄS MER
5. Multiscale modeling of atomic transport phenomena in ferritic steels
Sammanfattning : Defect-driven transport of impurities plays a key role in the microstructure evolution of alloys, and has a great impact on the mechanical properties at the macroscopic scale. This phenomenon is greatly enhanced in irradiated materials because of the large amount of radiation-induced crystal defects (vacancies and interstitials). LÄS MER
