Multiscale Modelling of Microstructure Evolution under Radiation Damage of Steels Based on Atomistic to Mesoscale Methods

摘要

Structural metallic materials used in nuclear facilities are submitted to irradiation which induce the creation of large amounts of point defects, which leads to modifications of the microstructure and the mechanical properties. In nuclear power plants, the main structural materials are: the pressure vessel (ferritic steels), the internal structure (austenitic steels).
