- In-situ control and measurement of the irradiation properties of nuclear material and
  fuel using HANARO

- In-situ control of the temperature, neutron flux, and atmosphere in a capsule
- Real time measurement of the displacement, creep, fatigue and crack propagation etc.  
  for nuclear material during irradiation in a capsule
- Study of the fission products, heat generation, and the temperature ramping phenomena
  using a fuel capsule    

- Examination of the material irradiation properties through studies on creep, fatigue and
  crack propagation etc. in the high radiation environment  
- Extension of the reactor lifetime and production of the design data for new reactor
  material through a study on the irradiation behavior of nuclear material.
- Study for the irradiation property and safety of nuclear fuel using capsule.

- Creep capsule technology developed and tested in 2002  
- Creep capsule with a multi-specimen to be developed by 2004  
- Capsules for the measurement of the fatigue and crack propagation to be developed
  after 2004
