Uncertainty assessment for the displacement damage of a pressurized water reactor vessel

Uncertainty assessment for the displacement damage of a pressurized water reactor vessel

The neutron irradiation-induced mechanical property change is a major challenge for nuclear materials. For a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR), neutron irradiation embrittlement of the reactor pressure vessel is one of the most important issues that determine the whole nuclear power plant lifetime. Th...
