Hardening and microstructural evolution in A533B steels under high-dose electron irradiation

Coincidence Doppler broadening spectroscopy in Fe, Fe–C and Fe–Cu after neutron irradiation

“…4(b) where the dotted lines have to be considered as 'guiding eyelines', one can see that as expected the Wparameter has increased steadily after irradiation up to 0.02 dpa and thereafter decreased with dose. In the low Cu alloy the W-parameter decreases continuously with dose in contrast to what has been stated by Fujii et al [23] when analysing low Cu steels irradiated with much lower flux neutrons or electrons. In fact, a close examination of their data show that their measured W-parameter is also decreasing with dose.…”

Influence of different chemical elements on irradiation-induced hardening embrittlement of RPV steels

“…PAS gives valuable information on irradiation-induced vacancytype defects [7][8][9][10]. In this technique, the positron is applied as a probe.…”

Effects of stress on radiation hardening and microstructural evolution in A533B steel

“…The yield strength at 290°C is 570 MPa. In the previous studies, it was confirmed that well-defined solute clusters and dislocation loops form in this material under neutron, electron, and heavy-ion irradiations in unstressed condition [15][16][17][18][19].…”
