Irradiation-Driven Recrystallization in Fusion-Grade Tungsten: A Mesoscale, Microstructure-Aware Model
Jinxin Yu, Sicong He, Giacomo Po +3
Tungsten (W) is the leading candidate material for plasma-facing components in fusion reactors, yet its upper operational temperature is limited by premature grain growth and recry…

Simulations of grain growth in tungsten armor materials under ARC plasma edge operation conditions using an integrated plasma-edge/materials model
Jinxin Yu, Nithin Mathew, Sophie Blondel +5
An integrated model of grain growth deuterium-exposed tungsten polycrystals, consisting of a two-dimensional vertex dynamics model fitted to atomistic data, has been developed to a…

A Mesoscale Model for Interface-Mediated Plasticity: Investigation of Ductile and Brittle Fracture
Jinxin Yu, Alfonso H. W. Ngan, David J. Srolovitzb +1
The presence of interfaces and grain boundaries significantly impacts the mechanical properties of materials, particularly when dealing with micro- or nano-scale samples. Distinct…
