Avramova and Palmtag to lecture at the Joliot/Otto Hahn Summer School

The 26th session of the FJOH Summer School on “Nuclear Reactors Physics, Fuels, and Systems” will be virtual this year from August 25 to September 3, 2021. The theme will be “High-fidelity Modelling and Simulation of Nuclear Reactors: Turning a Promise into Reality” and Drs. Avramova and Palmtag will be lecturers. They are among educators from internationally leading universities and industry.

Dr. Avramova’s research areas include reactor thermal hydraulics; core design; transient and safety analysis; multi-physics and multi-scale simulations; verification and validation; and uncertainty and sensitivity analysis. Dr. Palmtag’s research areas include reactor physics, computational reactor physics, and multiphysics modeling.

FJOH summer school is an advanced post-graduate-level course aimed at junior as well as experienced scientists and engineers engaged in the broad field of nuclear sciences, engineering, and technologies. The Frédéric Joliot/ Otto Hahn Summer School course represents the continuation of the Frédéric Joliot Summer Schools on “Modern Reactor Physics and the Modelling of Complex Systems”, which was created by CEA in 1995 to promote knowledge in the field of reactor physics, in a broad sense, and the international exchange of teachers, scientists, engineers and researchers. Beginning in 2004, the scope of the School was extended to include scientific issues related to nuclear fuels. The venues of the FJOH School sessions alternate between Karlsruhe and Aix-en-Provence.
