A Simplified Large Thin Plate Model for Modeling Fracture Behavior of a Hydrided Irradiated Zr-2.5Nb Pressure Tube Specimen With an Axial Crack

Published: Jul 14, 2019
Abstract
The crack tip opening displacements (CTODs) and the effective plastic strains ahead of the crack front in a hydrided irradiated Zr-2.5Nb pressure tube specimen with an axial crack are investigated using two 3-D finite element models in this paper. The first model is a pressure tube with 80 split circumferential hydrides distributed through the thickness ahead of the crack front. The second model is a large thin plate with a central crack with...
