Abstract
Yield strength, tensile strength and uniform elongation of unirradiated and irradiated reactor pressure vessel steels were determined by the modified miniature specimen test (MMST). The facility and conditions for irradiating the miniature specimens are described. The results were compared with conventional tensile test data. Empirical formulas for correcting result errors caused by the deviation of specimen thickness were established. The application of the MMST technique to radiation surveillance for pressurized water reactor components is addressed.
