CX-270029: Modeling and Validation of Irradiation Damage in Ni-based Alloys for Long-Term LWR Applications - Oregon State University

Oregon State University proposes to address thermal and irradiation-induced transformations mechanisms of Alloys 690 and 625 to extend the Grizzly code to include capabilities for modeling Ni-based alloys.  The proposed program combines thermal and irradiation experiments, mechanical testing, microstructural characterization using state-of-the-art analytical techniques, atomistic modeling, micro-and macro-scale modeling via Grizzly.
