superior dimensional stability during irradiation. Alloy A has a chemical composition of Zr-0.3Nb-0.5Sn-0.35Fe-0.25Cr, which significantly differs from traditional zirconium-based cladding materials such as

ability to provide a high charge capacity as the active material (AM) in anodes of all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs), has long been considered a promising medium for anodes. However, it may expand by up

on fatigue damage in metallic materials. We will employ 3-D crystal plasticity models in order to understand the role of compositional changes in fatigue damage. We will correlate these changes with a

composition of the materials as well as their pore size have very significant effects on their performance. Pores are small, with curved surfaces and the macroscopic material is almost always optically opaque
