Uranium-rich U–Zr alloys (e.g. U–10Zr) have been tested and qualified for use as metallic nuclear fuel in U.S. fast reactors such as the Integral Fast Reactor and the Experimental Breeder Reactors, and are a common sub-system of ternary metallic alloys like U–Pu–Zr and U–Zr–Nb. The potential was constructed to ensure that basic properties (e.g., elastic constants, bulk modulus, and formation energies) were in agreement with first principles calculations and experimental results. After which, slight adjustments were made to the potential to fit the known thermal properties and thermodynamics of the system. The potentials successfully reproduce the experimental melting point, enthalpy of fusion, volume change upon melting, thermal expansion, and the heat capacity of pure U and Zr. Simulations of the U–Zr system are found to be in good agreement with experimental thermal expansion values, Vegard's law for the lattice constants, and the experimental enthalpy of mixing. This is the first simulation to reproduce the experimental thermodynamics of the high temperature γ-U–Zr metallic alloy system. The MEAM potential is then used to explore thermodynamics properties of the high temperature U–Zr system including the constant volume heat capacity, isothermal compressibility, adiabatic index, and the Grüneisen parameters.}, author = {Moore, A.P. and Beeler, B. and Deo, C. and Baskes, M.I. and Okuniewski, M.A.}, doi = {10.1016/j.jnucmat.2015.10.016}, issn = {0022-3115}, journal = {Journal of Nuclear Materials}, pages = {802--819}, title = {Atomistic modeling of high temperature uranium–zirconium alloy structure and thermodynamics}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022311515302683}, volume = {467}, year = {2015}, }
