Vanadium-based alloys such as V-4Cr-4Ti are of interest as candidates for low activation structural
materials for advanced nuclear reactors. One of the major challenges of vanadium-based alloys is
their thermal stability and improving their mechanical properties at higher temperature ranges (>
600 °C). This work explores re…
In the quest of new materials that can withstand severe irradiation and mechanical extremes for advanced applications (e.g. fission & fusion reactors, space applications, etc.), design, prediction and control of advanced materials beyond current material designs become paramount. Here, through a combined experimental and simulation methodol…
