15th International Conference on Environmental Degradation of Materials in Nuclear Power Systems – Water Reactors
This is the fifteenth in the highly regarded series and promises to be another highly stimulating forum, which offers insights into materials problems, new methods, and innovative techniques from an international perspective. The conference will continue to focus on the degradation of nickel base alloys, stainless steels, pressure vessel & piping steels, zircaloys, and other alloys in water environments relevant to reactor vessels and internals, steam generators, fuel cladding, irradiated components, fuel storage containers, and balance of plant components & systems.
