Description

The determination of the in-service periodic hydrostatic pressure test conditions of the Dodewaard-BWR pressure reactor vessel and the evaluation of underclad cracks in the Borssele-PWR pressure vessel are presented. The (linear elastic) fracture mechanics approach is the tool used to deal with the two specific problems
