Microstructural and material property changes in severely deformed Eurofer-97

Kay Song, Guanze He, Abdallah Reza +7

Severe plastic deformation changes the microstructure and properties of steels, which may be favourable for their use in structural components of nuclear reactors. In this study, h…

Thermal diffusivity recovery and defect annealing kinetics of self-ion implanted tungsten probed by insitu Transient Grating Spectroscopy

Abdallah Reza, Guanze He, Cody A. Dennett +3

Tungsten is a promising candidate material for plasma-facing armour components in future fusion reactors. A key concern is irradiation-induced degradation of its normally excellent…

An estimate for thermal diffusivity in highly irradiated tungsten using Molecular Dynamics simulation

Daniel R Mason, Abdallah Reza, Fredric Granberg +1

The changing thermal conductivity of an irradiated material is among the principal design considerations for any nuclear reactor, but at present few models are capable of predictin…

Characterising Ion-Irradiated FeCr: Hardness, Thermal Diffusivity and Lattice Strain

Kay Song, Suchandrima Das, Abdallah Reza +6

Ion-irradiated FeCr alloys are useful for understanding and predicting neutron-damage in the structural steels of future nuclear reactors. Previous studies have largely focused on…

Non-contact, non-destructive mapping of thermal diffusivity and surface acoustic wave speed using transient grating spectroscopy

Abdallah Reza, Cody A. Dennett, Michael P. Short +5

We present new developments of the laser-induced transient grating spectroscopy (TGS) technique that enable the measurement of large area 2D maps of thermal diffusivity and surface…

Thermal diffusivity degradation and point defect density in self-ion implanted tungsten

Abdallah Reza, Hongbing Yu, Kenichiro Mizohata +1

Using transient grating spectroscopy (TGS) we measure the thermal diffusivity of tungsten exposed to different levels of 20 MeV self-ion irradiation. Damage as low as 3.2 x 10^-4 d…

Transient grating spectroscopy of thermal diffusivity degradation in deuterium implanted tungsten

Abdallah Reza, Yevhen Zayachuk, Hongbing Yu +1

Using transient grating spectroscopy, we measure thermal diffusivity and surface acoustic wave speed in tungsten exposed to different fluences of deuterium plasma. Scanning electro…
