Multi-scale modeling of inter-granular fracture in UO2

Abstract: The brittle fracture behavior of UO 2 fuels is strongly influenced by the porosity and grain size distributions in the underlying microstructure. In service, there is significant evolution of these microstructural features, which can alter the fracture properties and subsequently the thermo-physical-mechanical behavior of the nuclear fuels. To incorporate these microstructural effects on the fracture behavior, a multi-scale modeling framework is developed in the present work. Within this framework, the grain-b… Show more
