Description

Stress-strain behaviour of 316 LN at 4 K is interpreted in terms of transformation induced plasticity and adiabatic shearing. This interpretation is supported by microscopy observations. Fatigue behavior at 4 K of wrought and weld metal is compared. This study shows that the mechanical properties of the TF coil casings of the TORE SUPRA tokamak are controlled by the mechanical properties of the 316 LN weldments. (author)
