Constant temperature controlled biaxial strain-rate (CBSR) tests were performed on unirradiated 20% CW 316 stainless steel reactor cladding. Tests were made at hoop strain-rates of 1.2 x 10/sup -5//s, 1.2 x 10/sup -4//s, 6 x 10/sup -4//s, and 1.2 x 10/sup -3//s. For each of these strain rates, tests were performed at 425/sup 0/C, 540/sup 0/C, and 650/sup 0/C. The data from these tests are examined and compared with previously reported tensile data. A simple relationship between tensile and CBSR tests is developed, allowing easy correlation of the CBSR results.
