Description
Summary:The study is devoted to the methodology of simulation experiments for the analysis of radiation damage of structural materials of nuclear power plants by irradiation with heavy ions and subsequent analysis with use of the ultramicroscopy and nanoindentation methods. Details of the irradiation experiments in the TIPr accelerator (Institute for Theoretical and Experimental Physics) with ion energy of 101 keV/nucleon are given. Current approaches to the analysis of radiation-induced changes in the structural phase state of samples irradiated with ions with use of transmission electron microscopy and atom probe tomography are demonstrated. Models for the evaluation of radiation hardening based on microscopic changes, as well as the capabilities of the nanoindentation method for direct measurement of the hardening of a specimen layer irradiated by ions, are considered.
