Characterization of Damage and Fracture Mechanics in Nuclear Graphite (Experimental & Model Data)

This dataset provides experimental data for nuclear graphite material under Brazilian Disc Test and Three-Point Bending Test, along with corresponding numerical models, including:Experimental Data:Failure load and splitting tensile strength from Brazilian Disc testsLoad-displacement curves from Three-Point Bending testsNumerical Models (for ABAQUS software):Finite Element Model (FEM) for Brazilian Disc testFinite Element Model (FEM) for Three-Point Bending (3PB) testFinite Element Model (FEM) for L-Shaped Specimen Tensile TestConstitutive Model:A damage-fracture constitutive model (UMAT) specifically developed for nuclear graphiteCompatible with ABAQUS finite element softwareCapable of simulating damage and fracture behavior of quasi-brittle materials
