Multiscale crystal plasticity finite element model for investigating the irradiation hardening and defect evolution mechanism of A508-3 steel

A multiscale crystal plasticity finite element model, which combines molecular dynamics with crystal plasticity theory, is proposed. In this model, the evolution equations for partial- and full-absorption dislocation loops are utilized. Furthermore, we introduce the absorption probability in the cry...
