Framework contract for the establishment of a European knowledge base on ageing mechanisms of materials used in nuclear power plants
In the nuclear energy sector, ageing mechanisms of relevance in the given context relate to the changing structural integrity of a material over the operational lifetime of the nuclear power plant (NPP) where the material resides. This changing integrity can either be due to changes in the structure of the material, as could be expected due to microstructural changes arising from environmental, thermal, or radiological effects; or macrostructural changes, such as cracking; or surface changes, such as those caused by aggressive environments or wear. With this in mind, the ageing mechanisms of interest include but are not limited to thermal and radiation embrittlement, corrosion, creep, low cycle fatigue, combined creep fatigue, fatigue crack growth, creep crack growth, combined creep fatigue crack growth, and stress corrosion cracking.
In this context, the JRC intends to develop a European knowledge base on ageing mechanisms of materials used in NPPs.
It shall fulfil the following objectives:
— provide public access to state-of-the-art information on ageing mechanisms,
— serve the purposes of vocational training and education,
— consolidate and synthesize previous research in ageing mechanisms at European level.
