Theory of swelling and irradiation creep

Description

The rate theory for swelling and irradiation creep is shown to originate from averaging microscopic diffusion equations over spatial dimensions of the order of the sink spacings and over time intervals of the order of the lifetime of collision cascades. The inherent assumptions that go into the calculations of the rate coefficients and the production rate for point defects are briefly discussed
