Using additive manufacturing, scientists experimenting with tungsten at Oak Ridge National Laboratory hope to unlock new potential of the high-performance heat-transferring material used to protect components from the plasma inside a fusion reactor.
Nearly 100 commercial nuclear reactors supply one-fifth of America’s energy.
By studying hospital occupancy rates in hospitals of countries where data is readily available, Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers hope to further refine their population distribution and dynamics work.
Moving rods of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) to interim storage or a geologic repository requires road or rail travel.
