“…It is worthwhile to consider the series of MSIB triple beam experiments led by Eiichi Wakai that were reported over the period from 2003 to 2009 making use of the Tagasaki TIARA MSIB triple beam facility at the JAEA laboratory at Tokai in Japan [15][16][17][18][19][20]. While a complete review of these experiments is beyond the scope of this paper, a summary that highlights some of the important results can serve as a pedagogical outline for future experiments and as a motivation for future computational modeling of the helium and hydrogen synergy in the presence of atomic displacements.…”

“…Radiation damage of materials in a fusion reactor environment can be characterized by synergistic effects of displacement damage and nuclear transmutation products such as hydrogen and helium atoms [1][2][3][4][5][6]. These damages will induce the degradation of mechanical properties.…”

“…In order to safely operate a fusion reactor, the detailed behavior of material degradation with respect to 14 MeV neutrons dose must be known. The IEA FPCC accepted at meetings in 1993 and 1994 the technical conclusions of the Karlsruhe Workshop and the proposal of the IEA Fusion Materials Executive Committee to start a Conceptual Design of The International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF), based on the D-Li stripping reaction [4]. The role which an IFMIF neutron source will pay in materials development and testing can be described by the planned use in the following research areas: * Corresponding author at: Tokai-mura, Nakagun, Ibaraki-ken 319-1195, Japan.…”
Miniature specimens are widely being used to determine tensile properties of various size-limited new materials, especially quickly evaluate or monitor changes in mechanical properties of in-service reactor components to ensure their continuous operation with large safe margins. Although tensile properties of the miniature specimens are investigated extensively, the basic mechanism on such size effects, especially tensile plasticity, is not understood well. Here, tensile properties of A588 low alloy steel specimens with different gauge lengths and thicknesses are systematically investigated in situ using the digital image correlation technique. The findings reveal that the increase in the post-necking elongation with decreasing the specimen gauge length and the decrease with decreasing the specimen thickness are due to the scale-dependent strain-rate sensitivity, whereas the constant uniform elongation is attributed to the stable strain hardening exponent. An empirical formula on the relationship between the total elongation and the strain-rate sensitivity is proposed to describe the basic mechanism behind the specimen size-dependent elongation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
