Abstract
⺠The porosity impact on the UO2 matrix thermomechanical properties was investigated. ⺠Atomistic simulation techniques were used in this study. ⺠The UO2 thermal expansion coefficient is modified due to the pore surface effects. ⺠The elastic moduli at 0 K and at finite temperature decrease linearly with porosity.
