Master Curve Approach to Monitor Fracture Toughness of Reactor Pressure Vessels in Nuclear Power Plants
(unofficial abstract)
This IAEA TECDOC summarizes the outcome of the activities carried out in the IAEA CRP-8, which focused on following aspect related to the Master Curve methodology that is used to characterize the ductile-to-brittle transition behaviour of light-water RPV steels:
- effect of test specimen size, constraint and bias
- loading rate effects
- Master Curve shape validity
