Description/Abstract:
IN-PILE BEHAVIOR OF FULL SIZE U SLUGS OF KNOWN CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC ORIENTATION WAS STUDIED TO DET THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DIMENSIONAL STABILITY DURING IRRADN AND DURING THERMAL CYCLING, IMPURITY CONTENT, AND DEFINITE TYPES OF PREFERRED ORIENTATION. THE EFFECT OF FABRICATION VARIABLES (ROLLING TEMPERATURES, ROLL DESIGN, AND ROLLING SEQUENCE) UPON FINAL PREFERRED ORIENTATIONS IN THE U WERE ALSO STUDIED.
