Completely updated and enhanced, this two–volume work reflects the development and progress made in nuclear materials over the 15 years since the first edition. Covered here for the first time: – coated–particle fuels for high–temperature gas–cooled reactors; – modeling of fuels and materials behavior; – nuclear waste materials and materials for fusion reactor; – application of steel data from fast reactors to the lifecycle extension of existing light–water reactor power plants.
