Probabilistic structural integrity assessment for Inconel690 alloy steam generator tube with volume defect

Fit for service(FFS) assessment of Steam Generator Tube(SGT) plays a key role in safety operating of Pressurized Water Reactors. Engineering practices have emerged probabilistic method is a powerful tool in reducing redundant safety margin of FFS assessment strategy. The aim of this work is to develop a probabilistic structural integrity assessment method for typical Inconel690 alloy SGT with volume defect. The study consists of four parts:...
