Development of fuel behavior analysis code for mechanical fuel cladding failure during reactivity insertion event in PWR

Pellet-Cladding Mechanical Interaction (PCMI) failure is one of the failure mode which must be evaluated in nuclear fuel safety. PCMI is caused by mechanical load to the cladding due to fuel pellet expansion. Under high fuel burnup condition, the fuel cladding may become degraded by embrittlement un...
