Complex microstructure changes occur in nuclear fuel and structural materials due to the
extreme environments of intense irradiation and high temperature. This paper evaluates the …

The design of next-generation alloys through the integrated computational materials
engineering (ICME) approach relies on multiscale computer simulations to provide …

Self-organized patterns, realized in non-equilibrium processes, have been widely observed
in physics and chemistry. As a powerful tool to create far-from-equilibrium environments …

ICME approaches provide decision support for materials design by establishing quantitative
process-structure-property relations. Confidence in the decision support, however, must be …

Void formation is an important aspect of irradiation response of metals. In situ transmission
electron microscopy observation for void evolution during irradiation is an effective …

A phase-field model is employed to investigate the effects of surface energy anisotropy on
void evolution during irradiation. By incorporating a simple orientation dependent surface …

Micro-interconnection reliability analysis has been affected by a drastic solder joint size
reduction and adoption of lead-free material. Furthermore, the current density in the solder …

Nucleation and growth of the irradiation-induced void, which is a fatal concern for the
thermal conductivity of a structural material, is highly sensitive to the extreme irradiation …

Self-organized microstructures and patterns have been widely observed in non-equilibrium
physical systems. In particular, irradiation in metals creates far-from-equilibrium …

Voids and dislocation loops are two major types of damages in irradiated structural
materials, which are mainly responsible for the degradation of material properties. Here we …
