E-MailRadiation damage effects arising from in reactor irradiation can lead to significant damage of the fuel elements which subsequently affect their performance as spent fuel. The FIGARO project aims to link radiation damage, ballistic damage experiments via AI methodologies to predict and understand radiation damage mechanisms in irradiated Cr-doped UO2 based fuels.
