Microstructural investigations of ion (Kr) irradiated UO2
… ranging from room temperature to 1000°C. These irradiations were conducted ex situ with one in situ irradiation at 800°C. Post irradiation examination was conducted using transmission electron microcopy to study and characterize the defect evolution in the microstructure. Results show defect …

The Irradiation Tolerance of Zirconium-based MAX Phases
… that experience high temperatures and irradiation damage. In this work, two newly synthesised zirconium-based MAX phases were investigated for their irradiation tolerance using high energy heavy ions at a variety of temperatures. The response of these materials to irradiation has been …

An assessment of silicon carbide as a cladding material for light water reactors
… pressure, and neutron flux conditions. The irradiation involved about 70 specimens, of monolithic as well as of triplex constitution, manufactured using several different processes to form the monolith, composite, and coating layers. Post-irradiation examination found some SiC specimens had …

Enhanced corrosion of zirconium-based alloys in proximity to other metals : the "shadow effect"
… and non-contact at various separation distances. Post-irradiation examination of the cladding pieces showed: * Beta-radiation is not the main mechanism for the shadow effect. * Shadow corrosion is partly dominated by an electrochemical mechanism. * Radiolysis plays an important role for the …

Impact of cellular dislocation structures produced by additive manufacturing on neutron irradiation damage evolution in stainless steel 316L
… features and their potential impact on irradiation-induced damage mechanisms must be studied. Stainless steel 316L (SS-316L) samples were irradiated in the Advanced Test Reactor overa range of fast neutron fluences as part of a grant received by the Colorado School of Mines. …

Störfallsimulationen und Nachbestrahlungsuntersuchungen an kugelförmigen Brennelementen für Hochtemperaturreaktoren
… The fuel elements originated from various irradiation experiments conducted at high temperatures with high burn-up. The experiments were performed using the cold finger apparatus, a test apparatus which was already used in the past in a former version at the Research Center Jülich. The new …
