NEUP CINR-25-34154: Effect of neutron irradiation on NF616 (Grade 92) at LWR and fast reactor relevant temperatures

Researchers will perform a comprehensive study on NF616 over a wide range of neutron doses and irradiation temperatures to: (a) understand the general trend of microstructural evolution and resulting radiation-hardening (b) develop appropriate structure-property-temperature-dose correlations (c) identify the effect of chemistry and heat treatment on the irradiation performance of NF616 by comparing with HT-9 (d) understand the irradiation effects on NF616, and F-M steels in general.
