NEUP CINR-18-14788: Irradiation Testing of Materials Produced by Additive Friction Stir Manufacturing

The purpose of this work is to perform irradiation and post-irradiation examination of materials produced by the MELD manufacturing process (FKA additive friction stir (AFS)) and analogous advanced manufacturing technologies. Compared with other additive manufacturing technique, MELD is much faster, generates a refined equiaxed structure, and does not require the post-manufacturing treatments needed for processes based on melting and solidification.
