Flexural strength and defect behaviour of polygranular graphite under different states of stress
- Abstract:
-
The effect of stress state on the fracture behaviour of Gilsocarbon, an isotropic nuclear grade polygranular graphite, has been studied by employing four-point bend and ring-on-ring loading configurations to achieve uniaxial and equi-biaxial flexural stress states, respectively. Optical images of the specimens' tensile surface were analysed by digital image correlation to measure the full-field displacements: these were used to identify the fracture initiation sites, analyse crack geometry (s...
