Abstrakt: BACO is a code for the simulation of the thermo-mechanical and fission gas behavior of a cylindrical fuel rod under operation. Its modular structure and its detailed coupling of thermo-mechanical and irradiation-induced phenomena make it a powerful tool for the prediction of the influence of material properties on the fuel rod performance and integrity. This characteristic is emphasized here.
