Title: Correlation of yield stress changes in 316 stainless steel irradiated with high-energy and fission neutrons

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5488536

Data on change in yield strength of SA 316 stainless steel irradiated with 14-MeV, Be(d,n) and fission reactor neutrons do not correlate with respect to damage energy. The data suggest possible temperature or additional spectral effects. A simple defect production function, based on the production of lobes in computer simulated cascades, correlates the data much better than damage energy.
