Effect of temperature and hydrogen concentration on the threshold stress intensity factor of radial delayed hydride cracking in fuel cladding

Three-point bending tests provide the ability to measure the propagation of axially oriented cracks in thin-walled fuel cladding in a radial outside-in direction. Via three-point bending, unirradiated Zircaloy-2 cladding containing 155 and 305 wppm hydrogen was mechanically loaded at different tempe...
