Theoretical studies of fusion materials

  • 1. Oxford Univ. (UK). Dept. of Theoretical Physics

Description

The main aim of the work is the study of metals containing a high concentration of defects generated in a displacement cascade. Molecular dynamics simulation techniques are used. Two basic difficulties arise when one tries to implement simulation techniques for these materials. These are: (1) the choice of a suitable potential model; and (2) the choice of boundary conditions for the simulations. Work using copper as the chosen material is reported briefly. (U.K.)
