Relationships of irradiation creep to swelling implicit in the theories of these processes

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6315829
;
Theoretical relationships are derived expressing irradiation creep in terms of swelling, for creep by dislocation climb, by climb-enabled glide resulting from cumulative net point-defect absorption, and by climb-enabled glide resulting from cascade-induced dislocation climb excursions. In general the creep-rate-to-swelling-rate ratio is sensitive to sink densities even for a given swelling level. Implications are seen for translation from one irradiation environment to another.
