Description

Within the FKS-Program (Research Program Integrity of Components) acoustic emission measurements, mostly done in the new 100 MN-machine at the MPA Stuttgart, were carried out on large flat and cylindrical specimens manufactured from partly modified reactor steels with the following purposes (1) to distinguish the different origins of acoustic emission, (2) to recognize the onset of subcritical crack growth and (3) to predict fracture.
