REACTOR FRETTING: SOME CAUSES AND METHODS OF CONTROL

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4840046

A discussion is presented of components engaged in relative sliding which involves small slip amplitudes of the order of several mils to 0.100 inch. This type of sliding is usually known as fretting or fretting corrosion. The fretting mechanism is examined and methods of control are outiined. (J.R.D.)
