The effect of hydrogen on the multiscale mechanical behaviour of a La(Fe,Mn,Si)13-based magnetocaloric material
Siyang Wang, Oriol Gavalda-Diaz, Ting Luo +6
Magnetocaloric cooling offers the potential to improve the efficiency of refrigeration devices and hence cut the significant CO2 emissions associated with cooling processes. A crit…
Nanoscale characterisation of hydrides and secondary phase particles in Zircaloy-4
Wenjun Lu, Paraskevas Kontis, Siyang Wang +4
The interaction of hydrogen and metals continues to be industrially relevant and is a critical part of creating and supporting a safety case for nuclear reactor operation. In the p…
Hydride growth mechanism in Zircaloy-4: investigation of the partitioning of alloying elements
Isabelle Mouton, Yanhong Chang, Poulami Chakraborty +4
The long-term safety of water-based nuclear reactors relies in part on the reliability of zirconium-based nuclear fuel. Yet the progressive ingress of hydrogen during service makes…
Slip-hydride interactions in Zircaloy-4: Multiscale mechanical testing and characterisation
Siyang Wang, Finn Giuliani, T. Ben Britton
The interactions between δ-hydrides and plastic slip in a commercial zirconium alloy, Zircaloy-4, under stress were studied using in situ secondary electron microscope (SEM) microp…
The effect of δ-hydride on the micromechanical deformation of Zircaloy-4 studied by in situ high angular resolution electron backscatter diffraction
Siyang Wang, Szilvia Kalácska, Xavier Maeder +3
Zircaloy-4 is used extensively as nuclear fuel cladding materials and hydride embrittlement is a major failure mechanism. To explore the effect of δ-hydride on plastic deformation…
Microstructure and formation mechanisms of δ-hydrides in variable grain size Zircaloy-4 studied by electron backscatter diffraction
Siyang Wang, Finn Giuliani, T. Ben Britton
Microstructure and crystallography of δ phase hydrides in as-received fine grain and 'blocky' alpha large grain Zircaloy-4 (average grain size ~11 μm and >200 μm, respectively) wer…
