Argonne scientists use AI to detect hidden defects in stainless steel
Imagine you’re constructing a bridge or designing an airplane, and everything appears flawless on the outside. However, microscopic flaws beneath the surface could weaken the entire structure over time.
These hidden defects can be difficult to detect with traditional inspection methods, but a new technology developed by scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory is changing that. Using artificial intelligence and advanced imaging techniques, researchers have developed a method to reveal these tiny flaws before they become critical problems.

Advanced reactor designers, many of whom plan to use high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU), were disrupted following the recent events in Ukraine. However, the U.S. has been making progress towards establishing a domestic uranium supply and HALEU production capability. This panel session will feature updates from the uranium and advanced reactor industries, DOE, and NRC.
