The plate-type fuel has an excellent thermal–mechanical behavior as a type of nuclear fuel.
To simulate and analyze the behavior of plate-type fuel assembly under irradiation …

The hafnium control rod is commonly used in research reactors due to hafnium's exceptional
overall performance. As the reactor core is not uniformly irradiated, the hafnium control rod …

A plate-type nuclear fuel consisting of a solid monolithic foil of U-10 wt.% Mo is under
development for use in the United States' high-performance research reactors. In support of …

In this study, an innovative large-deformation multi-layer shell model is developed. In order
to improve the efficiency of simulating the thermo-mechanical coupling behavior in complex …

To obtain the optimized fuel performance, the effects of U-Mo irradiation creep rate
coefficient on the thermo-mechanical behavior of a fuel assembly are investigated. In this …
