Full Description

True stress-strain curves up to final fracture (flow curves) are used for the assessment of materials behavior and determine the acceptability of Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) containers as a result of energy-limited events. This is required for determination of deformation and containment in case of transportation accidents (see goals of Task Group in Appendix A). The results presented in this report are limited to 304/304L and 316/316L.
