Investigation on the formability and deformation mechanism of Zircaloy-4 sheets with different initial textures during stamping

Zircaloy-4 (Zr-4) sheets used in fuel assembly structural parts are subjected to high temperatures, stresses, corrosive environments, and radiation. Due to the poor formability of Zr-4, cracks usually occur during the fabrication of spacer grids at room temperature. In this research, annealed Zr-4 s...
