The object of this review is to summarize the achievements of research on the Alcator C-Mod tokamak [Hutchinson et al., Phys. Plasmas 1, 1511 (1994) and Marmar, Fusion Sci. Technol. 51, 261 (2007)] and to place that research in the context of the quest for ...
In the quest of the structural materials for the future fusion reactor, it has been shown that ferritic/martensitic (F/M) steels are very promising candidates, with a good radiation resistance in terms of damage accumulation in the microstructure relative ...
Several types of reduced activation ferritic/martensitic (RAFM) steel have been developed over the past 30 years in China, Europe, India, Japan, Russia and the USA for application in ITER test blanket modules (TBMs) and future fusion DEMO and power reactor ...
Ferritic/martensitic (FM) steels, F82H and Optimax-A, were irradiated up to 11.3 dpa/1175 appm He in Target-3 of the Swiss Spallation Neutron Source (SINQ). To investigate helium-induced hardening effect, micro-hardness and microstructure of the irradiated ...
As a part of the Broader Approach activities, R&D on blanket related materials, reduced-activation ferritic martensitic (RAFM) steels as a structural material, SiCf/SiC composites for flow channel insert in the liquid blanket and/or use as advanced structu ...
In this work Fe-Cr compounds, as model alloys for the ferritic base steels that are considered as main candidates for the structural materials of the future fusion reactors, are studied using molecular dynamics simulations. The Cr or so-called alpha' preci ...
The long-term objective of the European Fusion Development Agreement (EFDA) fusion materials programme is to develop structural and armor materials in combination with the necessary production and fabrication technologies for reactor concepts beyond the In ...
Tungsten materials are candidates for plasma-facing components for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor and the DEMOnstration power plant because of their superior thermophysical properties. Because these materials are not common structural ...
This PhD Thesis work was aimed at investigating the potentiality of tungsten-base materials as structural materials for the future thermonuclear fusion reactors in attempting to develop reduced activation tungsten-base materials with high strength and suff ...
A W-2Y material has been produced by powder metallurgy techniques including mechanical alloying of W and Y elemental powders in an argon atmosphere, followed by hot isostatic pressing of the milled powder at 1320 degrees C under a pressure of 200 MPa for 2 ...
