In this project, we target at three primary objectives: Molecular Dynamics (MD) code development for Fe-Cr alloys, which can be utilized to provide thermodynamic and kinetic properties as inputs in mesoscale Phase Field (PF) simulations; validation and implementation of the MD code to explain thermal ageing and radiation damage; and an integrated modeling platform for MD and PF simulations. These two simulation tools, MD and PF, will ultimately be merged to understand and quantify the kinetics and mechanisms of microstructure and property evolution of Fe-Cr alloys under various thermal and irradiation environments
