Abstract: | Notch effects have been analyzed utilizing finite element method (FEM) and EBSD misorientation map for unirradiated and irradiated 316L stainless steel. The major issue of interest is the possibility that low ductility, often found following irradiation exposure, will translate into low notch toughness. The influence of irradiation exposure can also lead to flow localization problems with components with notches or stress concentrators. |
