The CEA is pleased to welcome you to the 4th international NOMATEN School (November 5-7th, 2024), held on the CEA Paris-Saclay campus, at NeuroSpin, a world-recognized unique research infrastructure dedicated to brain imaging. CEA is proud to have you again this year in France, a few weeks just after the Paris Olympics and Paralympics summer games, and 3 years after the very first NOMATEN school that was already organized by the CEA in Paris in November 2021. Like the previous similar and annually-organized NOMATEN schools...
High entropy alloys are a relatively new group of alloys in material science. Recent years of research have shown that these alloys have the potential to be the answer to the increasing property requirements of industrial development. One of the sectors where high-entropy alloys can find their application is in the energy, military and space industries. One of the fundamental expectations for constructional materials used in these sectors is...

On October 18, 2024, the National Center for Nuclear Research in Świerk will host workshops on neutron technology and research carried out by Polish research groups.
Issues related to the design and manufacturing of new materials are a driving force behind the development of the modern world. Using the available materials in their natural form would significantly limit the possibility of their use in modern practical solutions. Therefore, progress has been observed for years in the area of miniaturization, strictly connected to the manufacturing technologies and use of new material solutions. A number of technologies are...
Understanding fuel rod cladding corrosion processes remains a challenge in terms of the impact of alloying elements on the oxidation rate. The corrosion mechanisms of zirconium alloys - Zircaloy-4 and M5 - are not yet fully understood, due to the complexity of these materials, the environment and ionizing radiation conditions. The aim of our research

Materials informatics is revolutionizing the field of materials science by leveraging data-driven approaches and advanced computational techniques to accelerate the discovery, development, and optimization of materials. By integrating vast amounts of experimental and computational data with machine learning and artificial intelligence, materials informatics enables researchers to predict material properties, identify novel materials, and optimize manufacturing processes with unprecedented speed and accuracy. This interdisciplinary approach not only enhances our fundamental understanding of materials but also drives innovation across various industries, from electronics and aerospace to healthcare and sustainable energy solutions. As we continue to face global challenges, materials informatics stands at the forefront, offering powerful tools to develop the next generation of advanced materials and technologies.
The use of atomistic simulations is extremely helpful in analysing the thermodynamics in metallic systems. DFT-based methods provide a powerful tool to describe phase stability, enthalpy and/or magnetic configurations, but are constrained to small systems due to a large computational cost.
The talk will provide an overview of activities held by Belgian Nuclear Research Center (SCK CEN). Then, the Fusion R&D programme carried over last 10 years will be presented. And finally, the current vision and near future infrastructural developments at SCK CEN will be presented
Polymer derived ceramics, PDCs, are a group of silicon-based ceramic materials that are gaining increasing interest. The most common ones are carbide, oxycarbide, oxynitride, or silicon nitride. They are characterized by high thermomechanical stability, oxidation and chemical resistance, as well as bioactive and catalytic properties. These materials are obtained based on the pyrolysis of preceramic precursors, most often organosilicon polymers. Thanks to this approach...
