Dislocation density transients and saturation in irradiated zirconium

Andrew R. Warwick, Rhys Thomas, Max Boleininger +10

Zirconium alloys are widely used as the fuel cladding material in pressurised water reactors, accumulating a significant population of defects and dislocations from exposure to neu…

Validating x-ray line-profile defect analysis using atomistic models of deformed material

C P Race, T Ungar, G Ribarik

The population of dislocation defects in a crystalline material strongly influences its properties, so the ability to analyse this population in experimental samples is of great ut…

Validation of x-ray line-profile analysis of extended defects in deformed crystals

C P Race, T Ungar, G Ribarik

Quantitative measurements of extended defects in crystalline materials are important in understanding material behaviour. X-ray line profile analysis provides a complement to direc…

Digital Fingerprinting of Microstructures

Michael D. White, Alexander Tarakanov, Christopher P. Race +2

Finding efficient means of fingerprinting microstructural information is a critical step towards harnessing data-centric machine learning approaches. A statistical framework is sys…

Oleylamine aging of PtNi nanoparticles giving enhanced functionality for the oxygen reduction reaction

Gerard M Leteba, Yi-Chi Wang, Thomas J A Slater +10

We report a rapid solution-phase strategy to synthesize alloyed PtNi nanoparticles which demonstrate outstanding functionality for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). This one-pot…

Development of data-driven spd tight-binding models of Fe -- parameterisation based on QSGW and DFT calculations including information about higher-order elastic constants

Bartosz Barzdajn, Alexander M Garrett, Thomas M Whiting +1

Quantum-mechanical (QM) simulations, thanks to their predictive power, can provide significant insights into the nature and dynamics of defects such as vacancies, dislocations and…

A First Principles Study of Zirconium Grain Boundaries

Adam J Plowman, Christopher P Race

We present the results of first-principles calculations of selected structural and thermodynamic properties of a set of grain boundaries (GBs) in zirconium, spanning a range of mis…

An Atomistic Modelling Study of the Properties of Dislocation Loops in Zirconium

Rory Hulse, Christopher P Race

Neutron irradiation progressively changes the properties of zirconium alloys: they harden and their average c/a lattice parameter ratio decreases with fluence. The bombardment by n…
