MANE 6380 - Nuclear Reactor Materials
The physical metallurgy and associated physical chemistry of problems encountered in the application of materials in nuclear reactors is discussed. Specifically, the metallurgy and physical chemistry of ceramic fuels (e.g., oxygen potentials), the primary fuel densification and pellet-clad interaction mechanisms, irradiation-induced creep, hardening, and embrittlement mechanisms, and the properties of zircalloy are covered.
Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: MANE 4480.
When Offered: Upon availability of instructor.
