Cleavage fracture micromechanisms related to WPS effect in RPV steel

open access: yes, 2006
International audienceThe main objective of this paper is to characterise the changes caused by warm pre-stress (WPS) on the cleavage fracture micromechanisms of a 18MND5 (A533B) reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steel.

New fatigue crack growth law for 316L stainless steel based on plastic CTOD.

open access: yes
This thesis is concerned with a new low for describing the fatigue crack propagation on a 316L steel (austenitic stainless steel). A new methodology is presented based on the plastic contribution of the Crack-Tip Opening Displacement (CTODp). The CTODp is estimated from full-field displacement data measured with Digital Image Correlation (DIC).

ZIP3D: An elastic and elastic-plastic finite-element analysis program for cracked bodies [PDF]

open access: yes
ZIP3D is an elastic and an elastic-plastic finite element program to analyze cracks in three dimensional solids. The program may also be used to analyze uncracked bodies or multi-body problems involving contacting surfaces.
