Physically-based methods for improved high temperature creep performance of 9Cr steels and welds: nano-, micro- and macro-scale studies
(NUI Galway, 2019-09-30)The reduction of emissions from fossil fuel power plants is essential to minimising the environmental impact of power generation and this can be achieved by higher temperature, with more efficient combustion of the fuel. ... -
A review of thermal, microstructural and constitutive modelling of 9Cr steel for power plant applications: Towards a through-process model for structural integrity of welded connections
(Elsevier, 2020-01-01)Life prediction for 9Cr steel welded components is an important issue facing power plant as it moves from steady-state, base-load operation to transient, flexible operation. Welding and heat-treatment of 9Cr components ... -
Through-process characterisation for welding, microstructure evolution and constitutive response of 9Cr steel material for flexible power plant operation
(NUI Galway, 2020-05-06)This thesis presents a combined experimental and computational characterisation programme of work for development of a through-process modelling methodology for the welding, post-weld heat treatment and in-service performance ...
