Fast Breeder Reactor (FBR) cores, which are composed of ductless fuel assemblies, have many potentialities of cost reduction through whole fuel cycle procedures with safety features, and of reduced high-level-waste disposal. The mechanistic aspects of the ductless fuel assembly have been investigated by mechanical tests and analyses, and the core static behaviors under the irradiation and the seismic occasion have been clarified in this study.
