Description
Four unirradiated A533B pressure vessel steels in the form of small three-point-bend (TPB) specimens were precracked for fracture toughness testing. Crack growth rates, obtained from eight specimens of each type of steel, were measured and Paris law constants determined for crack growth rate vs. stress intensity factor range data. The Paris law constants were compared with those quoted in literature for martensitic and ferritic steels. A method for the study of crack growth rates of irradiated structural materials using the small TPB specimens has been proposed. (author). 3 refs., 6 tabs., 10 figs
