Project M4F: Multiscale modelling for fusion and fission materials
Scientific manager for GPM: Cristelle PAREIGE
Beneficiary: CNRS (URN third party)
Start and end dates: 01/09/2017 - 31/08/2021
Funding: European Union
Convention number: 755039
Budget: 93 926,43 €
Project description: The viability of nuclear energy relies on the deployment of Generation IV (GenIV) fission systems and thermonuclear fusion. GenIV fission and fusion technologies expose materials to high temperatures and irradiation levels, which poses various materials challenges. The EU-funded M4F project aims to promote collaboration between researchers engaged in the modelling and characterisation of nuclear fission and fusion materials. The project will focus on ferritic/martensitic (F/M) steels, which have excellent resistance to radiation-induced swelling and excellent thermal properties, but are also the source of some challenges. The objectives of M4F include the development of predictive models for microstructural evolution and deformation under irradiation in F/M steels, as well as the development of a methodology to use ion irradiation to assess radiation effects on materials.
