• Join FFESD’s Nuclear and Extreme Environment Measurement group at next month’s NASA Fission Instrumentation and Controls Workshop at the Ohio Aerospace Institute at NASA’s Glenn Research Center.
  • The group mission is to push the limitations of materials, sensors, and experiments through four core capabilities including: technology development, advanced instrumentation, irradiation experiments, and rapid design & prototyping.
  • The Nuclear and Extreme Environment Measurements Group is comprised of a diverse group of staff with various research interests, education, and experience.
  • The NEEM group maintains a high-level of expertise in 2D and 3D Computer Aid Drafting, model creation, Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), component fabrication, and assembly.
  • ORNL's NEEM Group is committed to developing the next generation clean energy workforce through investment in mentoring students throughout their academic careers and early career professionals entering the workforce.

Nuclear and Extreme Environment Measurements Group

The Nuclear and Extreme Environment Measurement Group fabricates and qualifies experiments for reactor components, systems, and materials. This group focuses on the development of extreme environment experiments impacting technology maturation, characterizing performance and properties of nuclear fuels and materials, and generate the data to advance physical modeling and simulation.
