摘要
The CANDU reactor pressure tubes are vulnerable to a detrimental event known as Delayed Hydride Cracking under normal operating conditions (DHC). The current work offers a novel method for assessing the structural integrity of the DHC initiation at the pressure tube's blunt defects. Based on the results of the experiments, the technique uses Failure Assessment Diagrams.
