Predictive simulations of the defect population evolution in materials under or after irradiation can be performed in a multiscale approach, where the atomistic properties of defects are determined by electronic structure calculations based on the Density Functional Theory and used as input for kinetic simulations covering macroscopic time and length scales. Recent advances obtained in iron are presented. The determination of the 3D migration of self-interstitial atoms instead of a fast one-dimensional glide induced an overall revision of the widely accepted picture of radiation damage predicted by previously existing empirical potentials. A coupled ab initio and mesoscopic kinetic Monte Carlo simulation provided strong evidence to clarify controversial interpretations of electrical resistivity recovery experiments concerning the mobility of vacancies, self-interstitial atoms, and their clusters. The results on the dissolution and migration properties of helium in alpha-Fe were used to parameterize Rate Theory models and new inter-atomic potentials, which improved the understanding of fusion reactor materials behavior. Finally, the effects of carbon, present in all steels as the principal hardening element, are also shown.
