NOMATEN HYBRID-SEMINAR, December 10th, Phase Evolution in Uranium-10wt.% Molybdenum Fuel Subjected to Irradiation at Sub-eutectoid Temperatures

Uranium-10wt.% molybdenum (U-10Mo) fuels are currently under consideration for the conversion of high-enriched U to low-enriched U fuels within high-performance research and test reactors to minimize proliferation concerns. These fuels are also of interest for small modular reactors and fast reactors, which require differing fabrication techniques. In general...

NOMATEN HYBRID-SEMINAR, October 29th, The practical approach of thermomechanical processing of high entropy alloys in (CoNiFeMn)1-xMox system to achieve special properties

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...

4th CoE NOMATEN Winter School

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...

NOMATEN ONLINE-SEMINAR October 15: Spark Plasma Sintering – technology for manufacturing of advanced materials

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...

NOMATEN ONLINE-SEMINAR September 24: Experimental approach to the effects of irradiation on the corrosion rate of zirconium alloys

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

NOMATEN Centre of Excellence at the meeting at The National Centre for Research and Development (NCBR) summed up its 5-year activity

Three Polish Centers of Excellence that received funding from Horizon 2020: Sano, ENSEMBLE3 and NOMATEN - summed up their 5-year activities at a conference dedicated to the "Teaming for Excellence" competition. Representatives of the following projects recently received a grant from Horizon Europe: TRIO-VI, AstroCENT Plus and P4Health, and they also discussed their plans. The meeting was hosted by the National Center for Research and Development.

NOMATEN HYBRID-SEMINAR, June 18th, A novel approach for developing interatomic potentials in magnetic materials

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.


This project has received funding from the European Union Horizon 2020 research and innovation
programme under grant agreement No 857470 and from European Regional Development Fund
via Foundation for Polish Science International Research Agenda PLUS programme grant
No MAB PLUS/2018/8.
