NSUF 22-4496: Gamma irradiation effects on the mechanical behavior of seismic protective devices

The goal of this project is to investigate the effect of gamma radiation on the mechanical behavior of the seismic protective devices. The project will involve irradiation of these isolators and dampers in the Foss gamma irradiator at INL and performing mechanical testing of the pre-irradiated and post-irradiated specimens in the single-bearing test machine at the University at Buffalo (UB).
