Abstract EN
This work was motivated by the fact that although fracture toughness of a material in the ductile-to-brittle transition temperature region J c exhibits the test specimen thickness (TST) effect on J c , frequently described as J c ∝ ( TST ) - 1 / 2 , experiences a contradiction that is deduced from this empirical formulation; that is, J c = 0 for large TST.
On the other hand, our previous works have showed that the TST effect on J c could be explained as a difference in the out-of-plane constraint and correlated with the out-of-plane T 33 -stress.
Thus, in this work, the TST effect on J c for the decommissioned Shoreham reactor vessel steel A533B was demonstrated from the standpoint of out-of-plane constraint.
The results validated that T 33 was effective for describing the J c decreasing tendency.
Because the Shoreham data included a lower bound J c for increasing TST, a new finding was made that T 33 successfully predicted the lower bound of J c with increasing TST.
This lower bound J c prediction with T 33 conquered the contradiction that the empirical J c ∝ ( TST ) - 1 / 2 predicts J c = 0 for large TST.
