Failure simulation of nuclear pressure vessel under severe accident conditions: Part I - Material constitutive modeling

This paper proposes a combined plastic and creep constitutive model of A533B1 pressure vessel steel to simulate progressive deformation of nuclear pressure vessels under severe accident conditions. To develop the model, recent tensile test data covering a wide range of temperatures (from RT to 1,100...
