DOE issues new NEPA rule and procedures—and accelerates DOME reactor testing
Meeting a deadline set in President Trump’s May 23 executive order “Reforming Nuclear Reactor Testing at the Department of Energy,” the DOE on June 30 updated information on its National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) rulemaking and implementation procedures and published on its website an interim final rule that rescinds existing regulations alongside new implementing procedures.
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.
