Quantitative in situ study of short crack propagation in polygranular graphite by digital image correlation
This paper reports experimental observations that show non-irradiated Gilsocarbon polygranular nuclear graphite fits within the quasi-brittle class of materials. Such materials exhibit a degree of damage tolerance that depends on the stability of cracks that nucleate in the microstructure. Modelling...
