Effect of Neutron Irradiation on the Tensile Properties and Microstructure of Several Vanadium Alloys.

摘要

This paper contains viewgraphs describing the effects of neutron irradiation on the tensile properties and microstructure of vanadium alloys in first wall fusion reactors. A tritium trick experiment was used to study the helium embrittlement and the stresses and strains on these materials in a controlled environment. (ERA citation 13:005264)
