Latest Advances in Nuclear Energy Systems

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to offer you the opportunity to publish your original research paper in the journal Energies, Special Issue: “Latest Advances in Nuclear Energy Systems”. This Special Issue aims to identify recent advances in nuclear technology that are necessary to realize the full potential of nuclear energy. Our aim is to collect approximately 20 articles covering key topics, ranging from modeling and simulation, analysis methods, and algorithms to demonstrative reactor applications, including first-of-a-kind reactor technologies, advanced fuel concepts, and hybrid energy technologies. By way of example, some of the key topics of interest to this Special Issue include advances in multiphysics simulation and associated numerical methods, digital twining applications for condition monitoring, autonomous control, intrusion detection, methods to support validation of first-of-a-kind reactor systems with limited experimental data, advanced methods for machine learning, artificial intelligence, and statistical inference, strategies and algorithms to improve the economy of existing reactors and optimize design of new reactors, application of nuclear technology for both electricity and heat process applications, etc.
