Columnar grain growth of yttria-stabilized-zirconia in inductively coupled plasma spraying
Yttria-stabilized-zirconia (YSZ) was deposited 7 mm thick by inductively coupled plasma spraying (ICP) and a theory of nucleation and solidification of YSZ was introduced. The concentration was homogeneous wit...

Characterization of irradiated simulated DUPIC fuel
A simulated DUPIC (Direct Use of Spent PWR Fuel in CANDU Reactors) fuel was irradiated at HANARO research reactor of KAERI in 1999. Post-irradiation examinations, such as measurements of γ-scanning, profilomet...

The thermal diffusivity of simulated DUPIC fuel for irradiation test
The thermal diffusivity of simulated DUPIC fuel with an equivalent burnup of 35,000 MWd/tU (3.73 at.%), which was to be tested for irradiation at the HANARO research reactor, was measured using the laser flash...

A study of the microstructure of yttria-stabilized zirconia deposited by inductively coupled plasma spraying
Zirconia stabilized with 20 wt.% yttria was deposited to a thick free-standing type, ∼7 mm, by (inductively coupled plasma spraying) (ICPS). The spheroidization of particles and the microstructure of deposits ...
