Abstract
The effects of displacement per atom (dpa) level, helium content, and the ratio of helium content to dpa level on the tensile and creep properties have been investigated in the assumed irradiation damage range of FBR structural materials. The assumed irradiation damage range is up to about 1 dpa and about 30 appm for helium content. Austenitic stainless steel and high-chromium martensitic steel are considered as FBR structural materials. As a result, it is shown that the dpa level is a promising index for evaluating neutron irradiation damage.
