In the context of fast neutron reactors, boron carbide is a ceramic material with excellent properties for controlling nuclear reactor power. Thanks to its high absorption cross sections of 10B, this material provides an excellent neutron absorber. As a consequence of the 10B(n,α) nuclear reactions, significant quantities...
Synchrotron X-rays provide ideal tools for studying the processes that control localised corrosion of metals in wet environments, which is key to understanding the processes that can cause damage to structures such as nuclear waste storage containers and aircraft. In this talk, the morphology of localised corrosion is...
At the beginning we will have a brief look at the liquid-glass transition phenomenon. However, most attention will be focused on the behavior of molecular dynamics during the vitrification process, caused by cooling and compression. Molecular dynamic behavior will be analyzed and...
Hybrid ab initio-machine learning simulations of
The ever increasing power of digital computers and the maturity of atomistic simulation tools based on first principles calculations and molecular mechanics provide a unique opportunity to design new materials for engineering applications in silico. The main limitation is...
This scientific workshop was delve into the most recent experimental and computational methods in the field of characterization of irradiation damage in materials for extreme operating conditions. Attendees learned about the experimental and...
The Materials Informatics software has been developed at NCBJ and the NOMATEN Centre of Excellence, in the group of Materials Structure, Informatics and Function, under the leadership of professor Stefanos Papanikolaou.
Martin Hruby was born in Prague, Czech Republic, in 1978. He awarded his MSc. degree in 2002 in the field of organic chemistry and Ph.D. degree in 2006 in the field of polymer science. He is working as a senior researcher...
In the ideal world, academia produces ideas and proof of concepts while the industry develops and implements them. In reality, communication between both entities is difficult, as it seems we speak different languages. In this talk, we want to show...

Simulations in molecular dynamics (MD) often are carried out in an applied pressure, as for instance in case of modelling the dynamics of dislocations in materials. In analysis of results a crucial role is played by the proper understanding of underlying process of pressure penetration itself, since this is a dynamic process...
