Abstract:Eurofer97 is considered as one of the structural material candidates for in-vessel components of future fusion reactor. Due to frequent startups, shutdowns and load changes in reactor, the material is under complex cyclic loadings. This work investigates the mechanical behavior of Eurofer97 under various cyclic loadings, including strain-controlled LCF tests and stress-controlled ratcheting tests at high temperatures 450°C and 550°C. Various influencing factors on ratcheting, such as stress magnitude, stress r… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
