Caleb P. Massey

R&D Associate Staff Member, Advanced Fuel Fabrication and Instrumentation

Caleb Massey is a staff member in the Nuclear Fuel Materials Group at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. His research focuses on irradiation effects on materials, with a strong focus on advanced fuel and cladding systems for nuclear reactors. He joined the Nuclear Fuel Materials Group in 2019 after completing his Ph.D. in Nuclear Engineering at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Dr. Massey’s research interests span a variety of topics, including fundamental irradiation effects on metallic fuel, the use of mechanical alloying to design novel material systems, thermomechanical processing effects on metals and alloys, post-irradiation examination of irradiated materials, and the behavior of fuel/cladding systems in normal and transient reactor operating regimes.
