The technical report is based on an earlier research on material properties of the M5 structural material. Complementing this research with new M5 data found in open literature, a set of correlations has been developed for the implementation to the TRANSURANUS code. This includes thermal,...

This report presents briefly the test methods used, within the in the EERA JPNM Pilot Project TASTE, for defining the tensile and creep material properties relevant to the integrity of nuclear fuel claddings. These properties are challenging to extract from thin walled tubes since the standard...

A simplified methodology to define the negligible creep (TNEC) curves has been proposed for the CEN TC 54 WG CREEP for defining negligible creep temperature curves using standard tensile and the creep rupture properties. The method can potentially be implemented in the European standard EN-13445...

For simplified design of components operating at high temperatures it is recommended to design in the No Creep (NC) or Negligible creep (NEC) temperature regimes of the material. In nuclear design rules (such as RCC-MRx), it is possible to disregard creep as design criterion during normal...

One of the main aims of SPT-INVEST project was to assess the reference material BCR-661 (Nimonic 75) in greater detail with the aim of clarifying, if this reference material (which is according to the ISO 6892, Part 1 standard only for uniaxial tensile testing) would also be suitable for the...

This report is based on the results and experience gained in assessing both public domain and MATTER data, some previously reported in the MATTER deliverable D4.5: "Creep-fatigue interaction rules for P91" and some assessed here. A number of methods, including interaction diagram based methods...

The report is a recommendation on the methodology for determining the negligible creep (NEC) domain for P91 steel. The objective to define the actual TNEC curve for P91 was fully reached and time safety factors involved in the recommended curve was calculated and found to be conservative. The...
