Nuclear materials are often demanded to function for extended time in extreme
environments, including high radiation fluxes with associated transmutations, high …

Reduced activation ferritic martensitic (RAFM) and oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS)
steels are the most promising candidates for fusion first-wall/blanket (FW/B) structures. The …

Calculations of dislocation-defect interactions are essential to model metallic strength, but
the required system sizes are at or beyond ab initio limits. Current estimates thus have …

In order to facilitate its application as plasma facing material, neutron irradiation response of
tungsten (W) has been extensively studied by employing fission reactors. In this article, the …

Ultrafast radiographic imaging and tracking (U-RadIT) use state-of-the-art ionizing particle
and light sources to experimentally study sub-nanosecond transients or dynamic processes …

Ferritic/martensitic steels will be used as structural components in next generation nuclear
reactors. Their successful operation relies on an understanding of irradiation-induced defect …

In this work, tungsten-containing TaTiWVCr refractory high entropy alloy (RHEA) and
tungsten (W) films with amorphous structures were irradiated by a 60 keV helium (He) ion …

Exposure of metals to neutron irradiation results in an increase in the yield strength and a
significant loss of ductility. Irradiation hardening is also closely related to the fracture …

Alumina-forming duplex FeNiCrAl alloy with superior mechanical properties and high-
temperature oxidation resistance has been regarded as an accident-tolerant fuel cladding …

Systematic temperature-effects investigations on damage evolution in ion-irradiated Ni-
based concentrated solid-solution alloys (CSAs) are pivotal to provide reliance on their use …
