[P2-04] The challenge of achieving quantitative phase field models for microstructure evolution in irradiated solids - the case of voids
We present a thermodynamics-consistent formalism of a phase field model of void growth in irradiated solids, along with its sharp interface counterpart. Asymptotic matching of the two models was performed to yield all phase field model parameters in terms of real materials properties. In this presentation, the results of a first quantitative simulations of void growth driven by irradiation using our phase field approach will be reported. This work was performed in collaboration with Srujan Rokkam, Thomas Hochrainer, and Karim Ahmed.
