| Résumé | The strain field at the interface between an alloy and its oxide layer has been mapped using nanopatterned gauges resistant to the environment of the primary nuclear medium. It was found that oxidation has decreased the alloy ductility, thereby enabling some grain boundary opening to be detectable from 1.8% strain. It is shown that statistics of extreme rare events of hotspots quantify the occurrence of the local opening of intergranular cracks, and thereby the ageing process. (c) 2014 Acta Materialia Inc.
