The Component Operational Experience, Degradation and Ageing Programme (CODAP) combines the follow-u...
Many of the failures that occur in nuclear fuel rods in light water reactors around the world are caused by the phenomenon of mechanical interaction between pellets and cladding (PCMI). The process i...
Nuclear safety can be understood as accident prevention in nuclear installations, via its systems and its human resources, and the mitigation of risks and consequences if an accident should occur.
As a low-carbon electricity source, nuclear energy has a role to play in global climate change mitigation efforts.
Nuclear science is the study of the atomic nuclei and their application, including in nuclear power plants, atomic theory and radiation.
The OECD Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) and CIEMAT are co-organising the Seventh International Workshop on Structural Materials for Innovative Nuclear Systems (SMINS-7). The workshop will be held in Mad...
Reaching ambitious net zero carbon emission targets requires a sizeable share of nuclear energy in the electricity mix. The value of nuclear energy as a scalable provider of dispatchable low carbon e...
Common-cause failure (CCF) events can significantly impact the availability of safety systems of nuclear power plants. For this reason, several Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) member countries initiated ...
