Nuclear Engineering and Design covers the wide range of disciplines involved in the engineering, design, safety, and construction of nuclear fission reactors. We welcome papers both on applied and innovative aspects and developments in nuclear science and technology.
Fundamentals of Reactor Design include:
Thermal-Hydraulics (including or not including Core Physics)
Safety Analysis, Risk Assessment (PSA)
Structural and Mechanical Engineering
Radioprotection
Neutron Physics
Materials Science
Fuel Behavior and Design
Structural Plant Design including seismic analysis
Engineering of Reactor Components
Experiments
Aspects beyond fundamentals of Reactor Design covered:
Accident Analysis and Mitigation Measures
Balance of Plant optimization
Reactor Control Systems
Licensing Issues
Safeguard Engineering
Economy of Plants
Fuel cycle including Reprocessing / Waste Disposal
Applications of Nuclear Energy: "nuclear-space", nuclear-transportation (ships and not only) . H2 production, desalination (or clean water from sea water),etc.
Maintenance
Decommissioning
Papers on new reactor ideas and developments such as SMR, and microreactors, then Generation IV reactors (e.g. inherently safe modular HTRs), High Performance LWRs/HWRs, Molten Salt reactors and LMFBs/GFR will be considered; Actinide Burners, Accelerator Driven Systems, and other special designs of power and research reactors and their applications are also encouraged.
