Titanium-modified austenitic stainless steels (15-15TiSS) are currently used as the fuel cladding material of fast reactors, which are subject to higher radiation damage during their application. In this work, the radiation-induced swelling of 15-15TiSS under a fast reactor neutron and heavy ion irr...
