September 20, 2021Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) proposes to perform research in three critical areas: 1) neutron irradiation behavior of Ni-based oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) alloy; 2) potential of friction stir welding (FSW) for nuclear applications; and 3) compare the neutron irradiation performance of ODS (advanced structural materials) and FSW (innovative manufacturing) concepts, using samples irradiated under similar conditions.
