A Simplified Large Thin Plate Model for Modeling Fracture Behavior of a Hydrided Irradiated Zr-2.5Nb Pressure Tube Specimen With an Axial Crack
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The crack tip opening displacements (CTODs) and the effective plastic strains ahead of the crack front in a hydrided irradiated Zr-2.5Nb pressure tube specimen with an axial crack are investigated using two 3-D finite element models in this paper. The first model is a pressure tube with 80 split circumferential hydrides distributed through the thickness ahead of the crack front. The second model is a large thin plate with a central crack with four split circumferential hydrides under symmetry/symmetry, free/symmetry and free/free constraint conditions. The results for CTOD indicate that the CTOD of the pressure tube specimen with 80 hydrides is slightly smaller than that for the large thin plate with the free/symmetry constraint condition and larger than that for the large thin plate with the symmetry/symmetry constraint condition. The effective plastic strain of the pressure tube specimen with 80 hydrides is smaller than that for the large thin plate with the free/symmetry constraint condition and larger than that for the large thin plate with the symmetry/symmetry constraint condition at large normalized loads. The computational results show that instead of modeling a full 3-D pressure tube with a larger number of hydrides, a large thin plate model with a limited number of hydrides can be used to efficiently determine the upper and lower bounds of the CTODs and the effective plastic strains ahead of the crack front in a pressure tube specimen.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
