“…In particular, the strict requirement of allowing only single point defects to migrate seems to be, at first glance, the only way of keeping some residual damage in the box at the end of the ageing, despite the evidence of cluster motion from MD simulations [21,[56][57][58][59][60]. Since damage is known to accumulate in Fe alloys under irradiation [1][2][3][4][5][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50]84], this suggests that trapping mechanisms, either explicit (addition of traps in set B), or implicit (sets A and C) are fundamental for a correct prediction of radiation effects in these alloys. In the present section we propose a selection of simulations of irradiation experiments in pure Fe and Fe-Cu, aimed demonstrating that, provided that traps are introduced and with a choice of other parameters based mostly on MD simulation results, it is possible to obtain physically acceptable results from OKMC simulations, within the assumptions described in Section 2.…”
