Atomistic Simulation of High-Density Uranium Fuels
Figure 8
Composition profiles of the computational cells at K shown in Figure 7 for (from left to right) 3, 5, and 7 wt% Si, and (from top to bottom) 4, 7, and 10 wt% Mo. Al, Si, U, and Mo atoms are denoted with yellow, red, blue, and grey circles, respectively. The original location of the interface (at the onset of the simulation) corresponds to the label “0”. The change of the concentration profile width with Mo and Si content is shown. Increasing numbers to the left and to the right of this reference layer denote matrix and fuel layers.
