Seventh International conference on modelling and simulation in nuclear science and engineering

The 7th International Conference on Modelling and Simulation in Nuclear Science and Engineering was organized by the Canadian Nuclear Society, in co-operation with the International Atomic Energy Agency and was held in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada on October 18-21, 2015. The objective of the Conference was to provide an international forum for discussion and exchange of information, results and views amongst scientists and engineers working in various fields of nuclear engineering in industry and academia. The scope of the Conference covers all aspects of modelling and simulation in nuclear engineering, including, but not limited to: Reactor and Radiation Physics; Thermalhydraulics; Probabilistic and Deterministic Safety Analysis; Fuel and Fuel Channels; Material Science and Chemistry; Computer Codes and Modelling; Verification, Validation, and Uncertainty Qualification; Best Estimate and Uncertainty Analysis; Monte Carlo Methods and Applications; Operations Support; Modelling and Simulation in Fusion Engineering; Advanced Reactors & Advanced Fuel Cycles; Real-Time Simulator, Instrument and Control; and, Used-Fuel Management, Proliferation Resistance. With over 100 delegates in attendance, the conference was a five-day event culminating a tour of Chalk River Laboratories.
