Abstract In this study, an in situ three-point bending test was carried out to study the mechanical properties and cracking behavior of the Cr-coated Zr-4 alloy considering the effect of pre-oxidation. The results showed that high temperature pre-oxidation led to the formation of intermetallic ZrCr2 at the coating/substrate interface and an α-Zr(O) layer beneath the interface. During the three-point bending test, the Cr coating and Zr-4 substrate showed good plastic deformation. However, the brittle intermetallic ZrCr2 diffusion layer exhibited cracks in the early stage, which accelerated the crack penetration to the Cr coating and the Zr-4 substrate, leading to the pre-failure of the pre-oxidized sample.

Abstract In-situ three-point bending tests and finite element modeling based on the cohesive zone model were developed to study the stress evolution and cracking behavior of the Cr coated Zr-4 alloy for accident tolerant fuel claddings. The initiation and propagation of micro-cracks were captured by in-situ observation and predicted by the numerical simulation. The results showed that vertical cracks first initiated from the coating surface and propagated to the Cr/Zr4 interface. Under larger bending strain, interfacial cracks began to initiate from the vertical crack tips driven by large local stress concentration.

Continuous carbon fibre-reinforced thermoplastic composites have convincing anisotropic properties, which can be used to strengthen structural components in a local, variable and efficient way. In this study, an additive manufacturing (AM) process is introduced to fabricate in situ consolidated continuous fibre-reinforced polycarbonate. Specimens with three different nozzle temperatures were in situ consolidated and tested in a three-point bending test. Computed tomography (CT) is used for a detailed analysis of the local material structure and resulting material porosity, thus the results can be put into context with process parameters. In addition, a highly curved test structure was fabricated that demonstrates the limits of the process and dependent fibre strand folding behaviours. These experimental investigations present the potential and the challenges of additive manufacturing-based in situ consolidated continuous fibre-reinforced polycarbonate.
