Abstract：

Evaluating　radiation　damage　in　materials　and　devices　is　vital　for　their　use　in　extreme　environments,　but　accurate　predictions　are　challenging　due　to　uncertainties　in　traditional　models　like　Primary　Radiation　Damage　Models　(PRDMs)　and　modern　simulations　such　as　Stopping　and　Range　of　Ions　in　Matter　(SRIM).　This　paper　reviews　essential　methodologies　for　predicting　radiation　damage,　including　the　Kinchin-Pease　(K-P),　Norgett-Robinson-Torrens　dpa　(NRT-dpa),　athermal　recombination　corrected　dpa　(arc-dpa),　replacement　per　atom　dpa　(rpa-dpa),　and　Chen-Bernard　dpa　(CB-dpa)　models.　It　underscores　the　importance　of　athermal　recombination,　empirical　validations,　and　practical　applications.　The　constraints　of　SRIM　are　discussed,　emphasizing　the　inaccuracies　in　the　Lindhard,　Scharff,　and　Schiott　(LSS)　stopping　powers　and　energy　transfer　processes　in　Full　Cascade　(F-C)　and　Quick　Calculation　(Q-C)　modes.　Key　factors　like　threshold　displacement　energy,　electronic　stopping　powers,　density,　and　binding　energy　are　also　summarized.　Finally,　the　key　findings　and　prospects　for　future　research　are　presented.　This　review　offers　insights　into　the　current　state　of　radiation　damage　modeling,　providing　guidance　for　applications　in　nuclear,　aerospace,　and　other　radiation-related　fields.　©　2025　Korean　Nuclear　Society
