In 1957, Dr. Lyle B. Borst—a physics professor at the University of Utah who had formerly been a reactor designer with the Atomic Energy Commission—and his students in his Physics 280 Nuclear Technology course collaboratively designed the X-12 Atomic Locomotive. This liquid uranyl-sulphate fueled nuclear power reactor was in essence a Micro-Modular Reacto (MMR) that we hear hyped in the news these days. The patents were filed and feasibility study was completed (https://lnkd.in/gGTuCVik), but of course this concept never advanced into commercial reality. The 1950s to 1960s are full of such innovative peaceful applications of nuclear energy that are now mere facts of history. As an energy scientist, I recognize that North Americans have lost their ability to dream big and to build exceptional engineering marvels. We can reshore our heavy industry and we can make great things once again, if we but reject irrational regulations and create new laws that allow our engineers and scientists to conceive of inventions that have immense benefits that greatly exceed their inherent risks (e.g., jetliners, nuclear reactors).

☢️📚 What role does irreversibility play in global nuclear politics? King's academics edited and contributed to a special issue on irreversibility in nuclear politics in the Journal for Peace and Nuclear Disarmament. They explore the dynamics of irreversibility and reversibility through different case studies. Find out more👇 https://lnkd.in/e2vNGmiv

❣ Excited to share our latest paper published in Progress in Nuclear Energy! ❣ 📄 Our research, conducted under the EU H2020 SANDA project, explores sensitivity and uncertainty analyses for the advanced nuclear systems ESFR, ASTRID, ALFRED, and MYRRHA. We've examined key reactor parameters using SCALE, Serpent 2, and MCNP6.2+SUMMON codes together with JEFF-3.3 nuclear data library covariance data. Our findings highlight the importance of improving nuclear data.

🔬⚛️🌐 The Plenary Sessions of #RRFM2024 discussed the importance of #reserarch #reactors and facilities for the development of an advanced nuclear power programme, ranging from #innovation and #industry needs to #education and #training. 🎙️⚛️📰 Today on NucNet Nuclear News Agency, some key points of the ENS President Stefano Monti's speech in the first session - "The Role of Research Reactors": "An ambitious deployment of Gen III reactors in #Europe coupled with the expected development and demonstration of #SMRs and advanced reactor #technologies will require substantial efforts in research, #development, and innovation and associated infrastructures, including #researchreactors", said Dr Monti. In this specific regard, "research reactors have been, are and will be instrumental in the testing and qualification of #fuels and #materials used in reactors operating today, but also those of the #future". ✅ https://lnkd.in/eB93-59g

Former Director of representative office in Brussel with expertise in corporate strategy and lobbying
🔬 *CONSULTATION ON THE EURATOM PROGRAM* 🔬 The European Commission is launching a consultation on extending the Euratom program until 2027. This research and training program in the field of nuclear energy, with a budget of approximately 1.4 billion euros, requires a proposal for extension to support nuclear research in 2026 and 2027. 📅 Consultation deadline: May 24 Three options are being considered: 1️⃣ End of EU-level support for nuclear research. 2️⃣ Extension with the same objectives, activities, and implementation mode as the current program. 3️⃣ Modified program to ensure its relevance for the remaining two years. Participate in the consultation and share your opinion! 🔗 Link to the consultation: [https://lnkd.in/ezX4utzb] #NuclearResearch #Euratom #Energy #PublicConsultation #Science #Technology

On June 19th, Dr. Yunfei Zhao and Joseph O'Leary, showcased their cutting-edge research at the 2024 Advanced Reactor Safety Conference, held as part of the American Nuclear Society (ANS) Annual Meeting. Dr. Zhao presented a paper titled "Reducing the Maintenance Cost of Advanced Nuclear Reactors under Risk Constraints through Condition Monitoring, Probabilistic Risk Assessment, and Maintenance Optimization" at the 2024 Advanced Reactor Safety Conference, which was embedded within the 2024 ANS Annual Conference. The paper introduces a new method for nuclear system maintenance optimization that integrates the Markov decision process with probabilistic risk assessment. The method has the potential of greatly reducing the operation and maintenance cost of advanced reactors while ensuring that relevant safety requirements are met. Joe presented his paper entitled "Improving the Efficiency of Dynamic Probabilistic Risk Assessment with Monte Carlo Tree Search and Importance Sampling" at the 2024 Advanced Reactor Safety Conference embedded in the American Nuclear Society Annual meeting. His paper introduces a new sampling methodology for dynamic probabilistic risk assessment which reduces its computational cost. The decrease in the computational cost has the potential to allow for the use of dynamic PRA in the design of advanced nuclear reactors and as a supplement to classical risk assessment techniques for both advanced reactors and the existing reactor fleet. #NuclearEnergy #AdvancedReactors #NuclearSafety #RiskAssessment #MaintenanceOptimization #ProbabilisticRiskAssessment #NuclearResearch #Innovation #ANS2024 #ConferenceHighlights #MarkovDecisionProcess #MonteCarloMethods #DynamicPRA #EngineeringExcellence #SustainableEnergy #TechInnovation #ResearchAndDevelopment
