This panel session will explore the leveraging digital twin models and integrating digital twin methods and tools to improve insights and optimize risk and safety of advanced reactors, experimental loops, and energy storages. It will cover different stages of the risk and safety analysis from pre-assessment (e.g., component health assessment, data analysis) to post-processing (e.g., uncertainty assessment).
