4. Predicting the evolution of materials under irradiation using physics-based models

Numerical simulation methods (§ 4.4 ) are being increasingly developed in an attempt to account for the evolution of materials' properties of use (figure 8 ): modeling chemical bonding (using electronic structure calculations), atomic-scale modeling of nuclear collisions (using methods such as molecular dynamics), modeling the slow kinetics of microstructural...
