When graphite is employed as a reactor moderator, the variations of temperature and neutron flux within the moderator bars cause internal stresses to be generated in the graphite. The effect of these stresses on the dimensional changes of the graphite are of immediate interest in the field of reacto

The historical development and modifications to the "single-phase model" of the graphite structure, used to interpret and predict behavior during neutron irradiation, are outlined. In the singlephase mode1 all parts of the artificial graphite aggregate are assumed to behave as if they were part of a
