NEUP CINR-19-17167: Atomistically Informed and Experimentally Validated Model for Helium Bubble Growth in Welded Irradiated Metals

The objective of this NEUP project is to construct a validated computational model for He bubble growth on GBs in irradiated Fe-Ni-Cr microstructures, including intergranular fracture, as a function of material conditions and welding heat input. This model will be based on the phase-field methodology, leveraging numerical solvers in the MOOSE simulation platform, with critical inputs and validation provided by both atomic-level simulations and experiments.
