Abstract
Pressurized water reactors (PWR) are the main constituents of the majority of nuclear power plants worldwide. The design of PWR includes a number of mechanical components that are exposed not only to radiation but also to the water (used as moderator and coolant) kept typically at 300 °C and at pressures in the range of 150 bar.
