Abstract:The universally-used theory of Norgett, Robinson and Torrens (NRT) for calculating primary radiation damage in materials assumes that materials are homogeneous. For many engineering materials, which have rich microstructures, this assumption is poor. As there are no alternative radiation damage theories that include heterogeneity, the role of the microstructure on primary radiation damage has been neglected. Here we extend the NRT formalism to account for microstructural variations and account for the damage c… Show more
