Modelling 3D crack propagation in ageing graphite bricks of Advanced Gas-cooled Reactor power plant
In this paper, crack propagation in Advanced Gas-cooled Reactor (AGR) graphite bricks with ageing properties is studied using the eXtended Finite Element Method (X-FEM). A parametric study for crack propagation, including the influence of different initial crack shapes and propagation criteria, is...
