Nuclear Energy

We develop and apply new coupled and integrated capabilities in support of nuclear energy, including reactor performance and safety and used nuclear fuel storage and disposal. We are a core partner in the Consortium for Advanced Simulation of Light Water Reactors (CASL) and are developing and deploying center capabilities that comprise the foundation of the Virtual Environment for Reactor Applications (VERA), recently released by CASL for use by its nuclear industry partners to address many of their most challenging operational and safety problems. We also support the Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation (NEAMS) program through our Verification & Validation and Uncertainty Quantification capabilities and expertise.
