The effects of neutron irradiation on austenitic stainless steels, usually used for the manufacturing of internal elements of nuclear reactors (e.g. the core shrouds), are the alteration of the microstructure, and, as a consequence, of the mechanical prope ...
The effects of neutron irradiation on the mechanical properties of welded joints made of austenitic stainless steels have been investigated. The materials are welded AISI 304 and AISI 347, so-called test weld materials, irradiated with neutrons at 573 K to ...
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of displacement cascades in Fe-0.1%He are used to investigate the synergistic effects of primary knock-on atoms (PKA) and He on the irradiation damage production at temperatures between 10 K and 523 K. The results indicat ...
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are performed to assess the primary damage due to high-energy neutron irradiation in bcc tungsten. For short-range interactions two different universal potentials are used, while for long-range interactions, two empirica ...
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, performed with embedded atom potentials, are used to understand the formation of defects following displacement cascades in Ni. Different empirical potentials, presenting large differences in stacking fault energy (SFE) ...
One of the most important problems in the field of nuclear industry is the relationship between irradiation-induced damage and the resulting induced mechanical response of the target metal and in particular ferritic base steels. In this work molecular dynam ...
Full text of publication follows: The slow down density of recoils produced by 14 MeV neutron in LiD is investigated. Of particular interest are the deuterium (D) recoils in the energy range of 0.1 to 12.444 MeV to bombard the tritium in LiD to induce the ...
The effects of neutron irradiation on the microstructure of welded joints made of austenitic stainless steels have been investigated. The materials were welded AISI 304 and AISI 347, so-called test weld materials, and irradiated with neutrons at 300 degree ...
Reversible martensitic phase transformations in a partially disordered Ni-Al alloy within the composition range from 60 to 65 at. % of Ni are investigated using molecular dynamics simulation. During a complete temperature cycle a wide hysteresis in enthalp ...
