A Crystal Plasticity-Based Simulation to Predict Fracture Initiation Toughness of Reactor-Grade Aluminium: Experimental Verification and Study of Effect of Crystal Orientation
Aluminium alloys are used for the fabrication of the fuel clad of research-grade nuclear reactors as well as for several types of core components of high-flux research reactors. In order to carry out design and safety analysis of these components, their mechanical and fracture properties are require...
