With the rapid development of modern industry, there is an urgent need for copper alloys
with high strength and high conductivity (HSHC). Unfortunately, the HSHC of metals are …

The deployment of Cr coatings as accident tolerant fuel cladding inside nuclear reactors
necessitates a thorough understanding of their performance, including mechanical …

As the physics that governs the microstructural evolution of nuclear fuel span various time
and spatial scales, to fully understand the fuel behavior inevitably involves atomic to …

An experimentally validated mesoscale model was developed to simulate the effective
