| Abstract | The aim of this research project is to gain a better understanding of the influence of lead content on the fracture properties of cast austenitic-ferritic stainless steels in the primary cooling circuit. A quantitative microstructural characterization method will be developed to characterize lead in the microstructure and damage with or without lead. A database of mechanical tests will be analyzed and completed. All the results will be capitalized using a local fracture model to predict properties with or without lead. |
