Local failures are defined here as those which cause local damage within a fuel assembly. The subject deals with the failure of individual fuel pins and the possible propagation of this failure from pin to pin and the subsequent possible failure propagation from assembly to assembly.
Section 3.1.1 dealt with fuel failure criteria arising from conditions within a fuel pin at the moment of failure, in particular for the case of fuel undergoing a power transient. It also dealt with changes of fuel configuration within the pin during burn-up.
This section is concerned primarily with conditions following failure, especially with how neighboring pins might be affected.
