1. 1. Phase transformation and stability studies of the Zr-H system

   Författare :Tuerdi Maimaitiyili; Lars Hallstadius; Malmö högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Zirconium hydride; synchrotron X-ray diffraction; Nuclear materials; phase transformation; in-situ hydrogen charging; hydrogen related degradation; neutron diffraction; powder diffraction; Rietveld analysis; γ-ZrH; hydrogen embrittlement; zirconium hydride; γ-ZrH; synchrotron X-ray diffraction; neutron diffraction; hydrogen charging; in situ phase transformation; hydrogen embrittlement; hydrogen induced degradation;

   Sammanfattning : Zirconium alloys are widely used in the nuclear industry because of their high strength, good corrosion resistance and low neutron absorption cross-section. Zirconium has a strong affinity for hydrogen, however, and if hydrogen concentration builds up, the material will gradually degrade. LÄS MER

3. 2. In-situ phase studies of the Zr-H system

   Författare :Tuerdi Maimaitiyili; Malmö högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Zirconium hydride; synchrotron X-ray diffraction; neutron diffraction; phase transformation; in-situ hydrogen charging; hydrogen related degradation; in situ phase transformation; hydrogen embrittlement; hydrogen charging; zirconium hydride; γ-ZrH; synchrotron X-ray diffraction; neutron diffraction; hydrogen induced degradation;

   Sammanfattning : Zirconium alloys are widely used in the nuclear industry because of their high strength, good corrosion resistance and low neutron absorption cross-section. However, zirconium has strong affinity for hydrogen, which may lead to hydrogen concentration build-up over time during a corrosion reaction when exposed to water. LÄS MER

4. 3. Mechanistic Approach to Corrosion of Zirconium by Water - A First Principle Study

   Författare :Mikaela Lindgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; zirconium; hydrogen pick-up; corrosion; oxygen vacancy; DFT;

   Sammanfattning : Zirconium and zirconium oxides are of major technological importance. There are broad applications for these materials, from fuel cell electrolyte to semiconductors and in hip-implants. In nuclear power plants, zirconium alloys are widely used as cladding material to contain the fission fuel in the reactor cores. LÄS MER

5. 4. Phase-field modeling of stress-induced precipitation and kinetics in engineering metals

   Författare :Claudio F. Nigro; Christina Bjerkén; Ylva Mellbin; Pär A T Olsson; Reinhart Pippan; Malmö universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; phase-field theory; finite element method; corrosion; finite volume method; phase transformation; hydride; hydrogen embrittlement; linear elastic fracture mechanics;

   Sammanfattning : The formation of brittle compounds in metals operating in corrosive environments can be a tremendous source of embrittlement for industrial structures and such phenomenon is commonly enhanced in presence of stresses. To study this type of microstructural change modeling is preferred to experiment to reduce costs and prevent undesirable environmental impacts. LÄS MER

7. 5. First Principles Approach to the Hydrogen Pick-up during Oxidation of Zirconium Alloys by Water

   Författare :Mikaela Lindgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; DFT; corrosion; zirconium alloys; hydrogen pick-up; electro-catalysis;

   Sammanfattning : Zirconium alloys are widely used in nuclear power plants as cladding material to contain the fission fuel in the reactor cores. A limiting factor for fuel longevity is the corrosion property of the zirconium alloys. The main corrodent in the reactor core is water. LÄS MER
