NEUP IRP-22-27881: Understanding of ATF Cladding Performance under Radiation using MITR

The objective of this proposed integrated research project (IRP) is to utilize the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Reactor (MITR) to study ATF (Accident Tolerant Fuel) Cladding performance under radiation in collaboration with leading institutions and all major US ATF vendors. The project will provide unique hands-on training for the next generation of nuclear engineers on nuclear fuel R&D, which is at the heart of nuclear energy technology development.
