posted on 2018-03-19, 09:16 authored by Colin C. GoodwinThe segregation of solute elements at grain boundaries has been identified as a major
contributor to a number of material degradation phenomena in the structural materials employed in the
construction of nuclear reactors. The ability to model such segregation therefore provides a powerful tool for
the designers and operators of nuclear power systems. The vast amount of analytical studies into grain
boundary segregation stands in testament to the pertinence of this issue to the nuclear industry. [Continues.]
