Segregation, ordering, and precipitation in WTaV-based concentrated refractory alloys
Jesper Byggmästar, Damian Sobieraj, Jan S. Wróbel +4
Tungsten-based low-activation high-entropy alloys are possible candidates for next-generation fusion reactors due to their exceptional tolerance to irradiation, thermal loads, and…
Design Kinetic Parameters for Improved Resilience of Materials under Irradiation
Mohammadhossein Nahavandian, Eda Aydogan, Jesper Byggmästar +3
High entropy alloys (HEAs) have captured much attention in recent years due to their conceivably improved radiation resistance compared to pure metals and traditional alloys. Howev…
Enhancing Irradiation Resistance in Refractory Medium Entropy Alloys with Simplified Chemistry
M. A. Tunes, D. Parkison, B. Sun +12
Refractory High-Entropy Alloys (RHEAs) hold promising potential to be used as structural materials in future nuclear fusion reactors, where W and its alloys are currently leading c…
Grain boundary metastability controls irradiation resistance in nanocrystalline metals
Osman El-Atwani, Annie K. Barnett, Enrique Martinez +13
Grain boundaries (GBs) in polycrystalline materials are powerful sinks for irradiation defects. While standard theories assume that the sink efficiency of a grain boundary is defin…
