Stress corrosion crack initiation in Alloy 690 in high temperature water
TL;DR: In this paper, a stress corrosion crack (SCC) initiation mechanism for Alloy 690 is proposed, which occurs in three stages: an oxidation stage, an incubation stage, and a nucleation stage in which the chromium depleted grain boundary is no longer able to support growth of a protective chromium oxide layer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Irradiation-assisted stress-corrosion cracking in austenitic alloys
Gary S. Was,Peter L. Andresen +1 more
TL;DR: A review of current knowledge of IASCC can be found in this paper, where the authors describe the goals of ongoing research and discuss the current state-of-the-art.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proton irradiation emulation of PWR neutron damage microstructures in solution annealed 304 and cold-worked 316 stainless steels
Bulent H. Sencer,Gary S. Was,Mitsuyuki Sagisaka,Yoshihiro Isobe,Gillian M. Bond,Francis A. Garner +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, solution annealed (SA) 304 and cold-worked (CW) 316 steels were pre-implanted with helium and were irradiated with protons in order to study the potential effects of helium, irradiation dose, and irradiation temperature on microstructural evolution, especially void swelling, with relevance to the behavior of austenitic core internals in PWRs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intercomparison of microchemical evolution under various types of particle irradiation
Gary S. Was,Todd R. Allen +1 more
TL;DR: The problem of irradiation-assisted stress corrosion cracking (L4SCC) in reactor cores is currently being addressed using different types of particle irradiation (electrons, heavy and light ions) to study the effect of neutron damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Swelling and radiation-induced segregation in austentic alloys
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of alloys were irradiated with 3.2 MeV protons to doses of 0.5 and 1.0 dpa at 400 °C.
