Description
Summary:This book is a textbook that describes the fundamentals of nuclear materials behavior in light water reactors. Both the materials science and nuclear engineering topics needed to understand the behavior of materials in-reactor are covered. Volume II covers specific materials degradation phenomena, such as mechanical property changes, irradiation-induced deformation, corrosion and hydriding, severe accident analysis, and other phenomena that affect in-reactor materials performance, as well as a chapter on fuel performance codes by Y. Rashid.
