Advanced programs are being pursued by several countries on nuclear technologies to assure a safer, reliable, environmentally sustainable, and economical energy. In this context, materials have to be available that embody refined structural, functional and radiation endurance needed to fulfil today technologies requirements and to face future demands that would come from perspective new generation fission and fusion reactors now at the design or at the DEMO stage.
This International Conference, which follows the ones on the same subject held in the frames of CIMTEC 2010, 2014 and 2018, will cover: i- processing, properties, modelling and simulation of nuclear fuels and of structural and functional materials for fission and fusion reactors; ii- radiation damage processes and characterization of irradiated materials; and iii- behaviour of materials during severe accident.
Materials related aspects in component design, crosscutting materials issues and medium and long-term targets for nuclear fission and fusion systems will be relevant to the debate as well as the crucial problem of radioactive nuclear waste management that will be object of a parallel Focused Session.
Contributions are solicited in the following and related areas:
