... al. in 2009, which presented methods used to develop Optimized ZIRLO from Standard ZIRLO. The previous paper only outlined the experimental methods used to determine irradiation creep. This paper presents the detailed methods used to determine in-reactor creep and growth. In addition, in-reactor...

... hydrogen contents (approximately 135, 240, and 700 parts per million). Sections of the guide tubes were re-irradiated in the Halden reactor to assess the irradiation creep and growth behaviors. Three conditions were applied: Bellows-loaded axial compression creep; zero stress growth; and zero stress, zero...

.... The irradiation dose dependence and the mechanism for the relaxation were examined using an equation derived from the irradiation creep equation. There was a steep stress relaxation, which might correspond to transient creep, at the early stage of neutron irradiation near the weld, and the different radiation...

... wrappers in fast reactors. The other steels were developed for compatibility with Pb-Bi coolants and serve to enhance our understanding of the general behavior of this class of steels. In an earlier paper we published data on irradiation creep of EP-450 and EP-823 at temperatures between 390–520°C...

...MB Toloczko; FA Garner A large amount of data on irradiation creep of face centered cubic (FCC) and body centered cubic (BCC) steels have been analyzed and published by the present authors, but a recent reanalysis of these data have provided further insight into irradiation creep behavior...
