Experimental and Analytical Investigation of the Mechanical Behavior of High-Burnup Zircaloy-4 Fuel Cladding /

Sufficient mechanical ductility of high-burnup Zircaloy-4 fuel cladding is important to prevent large-opening ruptures and significant fuel dispersal during postulated in-reactor and spent-fuel processing accidents. The effect of irradiation, oxidation, and hydriding at high fuel burnup may degrade...
