Prediction of irradiation hardening in metals
The purpose of this thesis is to improve predictions of irradiation hardening in metals with a focus on coarse-graining via meso-scale simulations. Increasing hardness and decreasing in ductility in nuclear reactor pressure vessel steel is the limiting factor of nuclear reactor life, and accurately...
