A variety of normal operation and accident scenarios can generate thermal stresses large enough to cause cracking in light-water reactor (LWR) fuel pellets. Cracking of fuel pellets can lead to reduced heat removal, larger centerline temperatures, an

Standard UO2 fuel pellets used in light-water reactors fracture during irradiation due to the large thermal gradient in the radial direction. Over the decades, numerous researchers have explored fuel cracking from experimental and modeling points of

While it is well known that ceramic UO 2 fuel cracks early in its life in a nuclear reactor, it is very difficult to collect in-reactor data regarding fuel cracking initiation and propagation to validate fracture models in fuel performance codes. Mos
