Wilde Presenting at the NAFEMS Seminar: Delivering CAE for the Nuclear Energy Industry

Tuesday 23 February 2010 - Knutsford

Wilde's Mike McCarthy is making a presentation at the forthcoming NAFEMS seminar - 'Delivering CAE for the Nuclear Energy Industry'; Mike's presentation is entitled 'Using Simulation to Manage Supply Chain Risk.'

Seminar Outline

Nuclear Energy is again back at the top of the agenda and the UK will benefit from a new generation of nuclear power stations. The design challenges for this next generation of plant require the use of tools which provide high fidelity and accurate design simulations across many engineering disciplines. With recent landmark European legislation there is now a new framework regulating the skills needed to work in this sector - 'SQEP' (Suitably Qualified and Experienced Personnel).

Seminar Objectives

The seminar will provide an opportunity to learn about Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) methods for the Nuclear Energy Industry, with presentations from industry experts. The implications of SQEP will be discussed along with the opportunities that growth in this sector may bring. The aim will be to highlight the challenges and opportunities of facing CAE for the Civil Nuclear Energy sector over the coming years.

Who Should Attend
?
The seminar is aimed at engineers and managers in the nuclear industry who want to gain an appreciation of the 'best practice' application of CAE tools within the nuclear community.

The event starts at 10.00 and closes 16.45.
