The book draws heavily upon the author’s own research conducted over the past four decades on various metallic materials, and also includes the current research in the field. This comprehensive reference details the mechanical aspects of nuclear materials, including materials processing, mechanical and fracture properties, modeling and simulation of mechanical properties, as well as plant life management and extension.
- Provides an extensive evaluation of the mechanical behavior of nuclear materials under different service conditions in a nuclear reactor
- Includes a discussion of issues and challenges for materials in the past, present, and future for use in nuclear reactors
- Covers advances in materials for generation IV nuclear reactors
Scientists and engineers working for nuclear power plants, industries supporting nuclear power plants, national labs, and students and professors from nuclear engineering and materials science and engineering disciplines
