IMechE - Nuclear Materials: Avoiding Structural Integrity Failures

476 123

With aging nuclear power plants and demand for life extension it is essential to guarantee nuclear materials safety, reliability and durability. Moreover, understanding materials properties and behaviour is key to avoid structural failures and reduce maintenance costs.

This one-day seminar sets out to discuss in-operation materials challenges experienced by the current UK generating fleet and how to effectively manage them. Gain key insights into the best ways to assess and investigate problems and take home effective solutions to prevent accidents throughout plants’ life-cycle.
