LATTICE STRAIN AND TEXTURE EVOLUTION DURING ROOM-TEMPERATURE DEFORMATION IN ZIRCALOY-2

LATTICE STRAIN AND TEXTURE EVOLUTION DURING ROOM-TEMPERATURE DEFORMATION IN ZIRCALOY-2

Zircaloy-2 and its sister alloy, Zircaloy-4, have extensive applications in the nuclear industry as core components in heavy water reactors and fuel cladding in both heavy and light water reactors. Intergranular stresses and texture can greatly affect the mechanical performance of these components....
