Zr alloys are used in cores of nuclear reactors because they are relatively transparent to neutrons, which helps the efficiency of a nuclear reactor. However, as any material...

The experiment wishes to measure the strain profiles across 12 mm thick reference ceramics slabs especially produced to minimize and maximize thermal stress during cooling. The...

The proposal is to study three alloys, both at high temperature and room temperature, to corroborate strain results obtained through high resolution digital image correlation....
