3D cellular automata fracture model for porous graphite microstructures

Nuclear graphite has a complex porous microstructure, which depends on raw materials and manufacturing process; porosity can change with radiolytic oxidation and also in the absence of oxidation with very high neutron fluences. Porosity directly affects the fracture process and the graphite tensile...
