Mechanical properties and microstructure of advanced ferritic–martensitic steels used under high dose neutron irradiation

Effect of dislocations on spinodal decomposition in Fe–Cr alloys

“…Fe-Cr alloys have found wide applications in nuclear power plants [22][23][24] due to their higher swelling resistance, high-corrosion resistance and good mechanical properties [25,26]. The mechanical properties of Fe-Cr alloys depend greatly on the morphology and profile of spinodal decomposition products of Fe-rich a phase and Cr-rich a 0 phase [27].…”

Dislocation–void interaction in Fe: A comparison between molecular dynamics and dislocation dynamics

“…Ferritic base steels are being extensively studied since these alloys are considered to be first candidate materials [1].…”

Effect of interatomic potential on the behavior of dislocation-defect interaction simulation in α-Fe

“…Low activation ferritic-martensitic steels are being extensively studied since these alloys are considered to be candidate materials for the blanket and first wall of fusion reactors [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Although the ferrite-based steels are relatively resistant to swelling and maintain good fracture toughness at irradiation temperatures above about 700 K, they are prone to loss of ductility at lower irradiation temperatures [10].…”
