Dynamic Fracture Toughness Testing for Welding Part of Nuclear Piping Using Normalization Data Reduction Technique

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, we performed the static test of nuclear piping materials by the unloading compliance method and the normalization data reduction technique and obtained two fracture resistance curves (J-R curves). The two curves were similar, which proves that the normalization data reduction technique can be adopted in the static test. Then we performed the dynamic fracture toughness test for welding part of nuclear piping. The J-R curves were obtained from the dynamic test by the normalization data reduction technique and were compared to those of the static test results.
