Description

The studies relate to all areas of the technology of materials fabricated into thick-section primary-coolant containment systems of light-water-cooled nuclear power reactors. The focus is on the behavior and structural integrity of steel pressure vessels containing cracklike flaws. The program is organized into ten tasks: (1) program management, (2) fracture methodology and analysis, (3) material characterization and properties, (4) environmentally assisted crack-growth studies, (5) crack-arrest technology, (6) irradiation effects studies, (7) cladding evaluations, (8) intermediate vessel tests and analysis, (9) thermal-shock technology, and (10) pressurized-thermal-shock technology. 111 refs., 125 figs., 38 tabs
