About this Research Topic
Frontiers in Nuclear Engineering is delighted to present this 'Reviews In' series of article collections.
This collection of Reviews in Fission and Reactor Design will publish high-quality scholarly review papers on key topics across the field of fission and advanced nuclear reactor design. This collection aims to highlight recent advances in the field, whilst emphasizing important directions and new possibilities for future research. We anticipate that the research presented will promote discussion in the nuclear engineering community and translate to best practice applications.
This collection welcomes Reviews, Mini-Reviews, and Perspectives. New articles will be added to this collection as they are published.
Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Reactor physics and radiation transport
• Reactor thermal hydraulics
• Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
• Nuclear reactor safety
• Nuclear reactor severe accident
• Reactor control and dynamics
• Reactor simulation
• Structural plant design
• Nuclear fuels research and fuel cycle
• Nuclear codes & standards, verification, and validation
