...Masayuki Kamaya High-cycle thermal fatigue is a critical problem in nuclear power plants. To prevent crack initiation, Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers has issued a guideline for design, although growth analysis was not included. In this study, the feasibility of incorporating crack growth...

...Said Taheri The aim of this paper is to improve the understanding of high cycle thermal fatigue crazing observed in some areas of residual heat removal (RHR) systems made of 304L stainless steel in PWR nuclear plants. High cycle thermal crazing and the absence of crazing under purely mechanical...
