Irradiation-induced void swelling remains a major challenge to nuclear reactor operation.
Swelling may take years to initiate and often results in rapid material property degradation …

This research is part of a broader effort to develop a nondestructive evaluation technique to
monitor radiation damage in reactor pressure vessel steels, the main contributor being …

A facility for continuously monitoring the thermal and elastic performance of materials under
exposure to ion beam irradiation has been designed and commissioned. By coupling an all …

This research applies linear and nonlinear ultrasonic (NLU) techniques to quantify oxidation
damage in a carbon/carbon (C/C) composite material cut from an automotive friction disc …

Various types of defects can be induced during the manufacturing or operation of
engineering structures. For effective detection and characterization of the defects in large …

This research develops a procedure that combines ultrasonic array technology with non-
