Kinetic Model of Incipient Hydride Formation in Zr Clad under Dynamic Oxide Growth Conditions
The formation of elongated zirconium hydride platelets during corrosion of nuclear fuel clad is linked to its premature failure due to embrittlement and delayed hydride cracking. Despite their importance, however, most existing models of hydride nucleation and growth in Zr alloys are phenomenologica...
