DTRA’s advancements in nuclear and radiological detection
A new, more complex nuclear age has begun. Echoing the tensions of the Cold War amid rapidly evolving nuclear and radiological threats, preparedness in the modern age is a contest of scientific innovation. The Research and Development Directorate (RD) at the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) is charged with winning this contest.
20th International Topical Meeting on Nuclear Reactor Thermal Hydraulics (NURETH-20)
Dr. Nam Dinh is a professor of nuclear engineering at North Carolina State University. Prior to NCSU, Dr. Dinh was a chair professor of nuclear power safety at Sweden’s Royal Institute of Technology, and a Laboratory Fellow at the Idaho National Laboratory. Professor Dinh research in nuclear reactor thermal hydraulics contributed to severe accident management in LWRs and ALWS plants. Professor Dinh's current research is focused on data-driven modeling and validation of advanced simulation codes, applications of machine learning and artificial intelligence in nuclear reactor engineering and safety. He is a Fellow of the American Nuclear Society (ANS) and a recipient of the ANS Thermal-Hydraulics Division’s Technical Achievement Award.
