Alloy Design for a Fusion Power Plant
… cooling circuit. In such high-energy neutron irradiation environments, extensive atomic displacement damage and transmutation production of helium affect the mechanical properties of materials. Among these effects are irradiation hardening, embrittlement, and macroscopic swelling due to the …

Advanced characterization of the early-stage evolution of microstructures and mechanical properties in neutron-irradiated commercial steels
In this project, the post-irradiation microstructures and mechanical properties of two types of Fe-Cr ferritic-martensitic (F-M) steels, HT9 and T91, were characterized. The materials were irradiated in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) at different temperatures and neutron fluences. Three …

Radiation-induced microstructural and mechanical property modifications in advanced alloys
… and most importantly, high dose fast neutron irradiation. Upon irradiation, the atoms in metals and alloys undergo successive displacements and point defects are created far exceeding the equilibrium concentrations. The material system is driven into thermodynamic nonequilibrium and the …

Intermediate energy proton irradiation: An experimental and analytical foundation for bulk radiation damage testing
… deployment of these systems. However, existing irradiation test methods are either extremely slow or not able to predict macroscopic property changes. In some applications, the shortcomings of existing methods could be addressed by a new technique - intermediate energy proton irradiation (IEPI) …
