Irradiation-induced void evolution in iron:A phase-field approach with atomistic derived parameters
A series of material parameters are derived from atomistic simulations and implemented into a phase field(PF) model to simulate void evolution in body-centered cubic(bcc) iron subjected to different irradiation doses at different temperatures.The simulation results show good agreement with experimen...

Summary: | A series of material parameters are derived from atomistic simulations and implemented into a phase field(PF) model to simulate void evolution in body-centered cubic(bcc) iron subjected to different irradiation doses at different temperatures.The simulation results show good agreement with experimental observations — the porosity as a function of temperature varies in a bell-shaped manner and the void density monotonically decreases with increasing temperatures; both porosity and void density increase with increasing irradiation dose at the same temperature. Analysis reveals that the evolution of void number and size is determined by the interplay among the production, diffusion and recombination of vacancy and interstitial. |
