The European Network on Neutron Techniques Standardization for Structural Integrity (NeT)

Abstract: This paper provides an overview over the work of the European Network on Neutron Techniques Standardization for Structural Integrity (NeT). The network involves some 35 organisations from industry and academia and these partners undertake the application of modern experimental and numerical techniques to problems related to the structural integrity of components, mainly relevant to nuclear applications. While being built around neutron scattering techniques, which are predominantly applied for analyses of weld… Show more

“…The example considered here is a benchmark proposed by Task Group 4 of the European Network on Neutron Techniques Standardization for Structural Integrity (NeT). The general aim of the NeT is to develop experimental and numerical techniques, and standards for the reliable characterization of residual stresses in welded structures [28]. Task Group 4 deals with the estimation of residual stress fields in a 3-pass slot weld obtained with the tungsten-inert-gas (TIG) process, in an 18 mm thick plate made of AISI 316L austenitic stainless steel [29].…”

“…Reference is made to [11] and to previous publications [12,13] for a description of strain and stress measurements by means of neutron and X-ray diffraction. The neutron diffraction measurements were carried out at room temperature utilizing the E3 diffractometer, installed at the BER II reactor [14].…”

“…The latter also depend on the basic material properties and on the welding process. Therefore it is clear that bulk characterization of nuclear welds is much more complicated than it is for base materials and that neutron diffraction is indispensable for such investigations [4][5][6].…”

“…Some 35 academic and industrial organisations active in structural integrity–related research on materials and processes participate in NeT. The network undertook to apply advanced experimental and numerical techniques to assess phenomena, such as residual stresses and thermal ageing effects, in materials and components relevant to their structural integrity [10]. Several benchmark studies were carried out by NeT.…”
