Abstract
Within the nuclear power plant operational life management, components lifetime extension requires information on structural material degradation. Innovative testing methods of Small punch testing and Automated ball indentation test are based on the determination of material properties from sub-sized specimens. Present paper is focused on the employment of these techniques in the NPP irradiated materials testing and evaluation at the accredited hot cell testing laboratory of ÚJV Řež, a. s., Mechanical testing department. Comparison with the testing results from the conventional methods is depicted.
