ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Thermal Hydraulics
The division provides a forum for focused technical dialogue on thermal hydraulic technology in the nuclear industry. Specifically, this will include heat transfer and fluid mechanics involved in the utilization of nuclear energy. It is intended to attract the highest quality of theoretical and experimental work to ANS, including research on basic phenomena and application to nuclear system design.

2022 ANS Annual Meeting
Jaime Marian is a professor in the Department of Materials Science & Engineering at UCLA. His group focuses on understanding materials evolution under extreme conditions using multiscale computational modeling, and developing efficient computational techniques, taking advantage of large-scale parallel computing capabilities. Specific areas of interest are microstructural evolution and mechanical property degradation in fusion materials, simulations of plastic deformation in alloys, simulations of thermodynamics and phase transformations in functional materials, strength in nanostructured crystals, and simulations of irradiation damage. He received his PhD in Nuclear Engineering from the Polytechnic University of Madrid, Spain, followed by a Postdoctoral Fellowship at the California Institute of Technology, and a staff scientist position at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. He has been the recipient of the DOE Early Career Award and is the author of over 100 publications in the areas of irradiation damage in materials, plasticity, deformation, mechanics, and numerical methods.
