Abstract
Material, A508-3 steel, has been used in nuclear reactor vessels. In the present study, fatigue and fracture mechanical behavior of Chinese A5083 steel at room temperature are studied by mechanical material testing machine (MTS). Test data of material's mechanical behavior including uniaxial tension, low cycle fatigue (LCF), threshold value of stress intensity factor (SIF) range, fatigue crack growth (FCG), and fracture toughness is generated and given for further study. It is worth noting that the model in predicting FCG of material from LCF parameters is verified and discussed.
