Role of fundamental defect processes in irradiation correlation in structural materials for nuclear energy systems

摘要: Abstract A number of recent problems in structural materials for nuclear energy systems require quantitative and reliable predictions behaviour as yet unrealized operating conditions. An example is found pressure vessel steels a light water reactor, where prediction embrittlement the steel extended period service must be done with confidence, because integrity vital importance safety reactor. Light reactor fuel, cladding wrapper fast breeder first wall blanket fusion are such examples that briefly discussed. In problems, we have either scarce data or limited rather irrelevant performance conditions question. The method used to predict irradiation from incomplete existing called correlation. correlation methodology ...
