Research on deployment of modern nuclear reactors in the urban environment with emphasis on the Molten Salt Reactor

Modern scientific research is highly specialised and concentrated on specific aspects of the scientist’s scientific field. However, when complex challenges arise, such as the sustainable energy transition, strong collaboration between scientific fields is required. Unfortunately, in many cases, these fields do not overlap, which causes...

Behaviour of ODS 12Cr steel under thermal treatment at micro and macro level: A positron annihilation and Vickers hardness study

The behaviour of ODS 12Cr steel under thermal treatment is studied in this report at micro and macro level. ODS 12Cr steel is always in the ferrite phase and has a melting point at 1500 ºC. Before studying,<br/>the retrieved samples were metallographically prepared in four steps: mounting, grinding, mechanically polishing and electrolytically...
