2015 ASME Power & Energy
ASME Nuclear Forum

San Diego, CA
USA
June 28 - July 2, 2015


ASME Power & Energy 2015 joins ASME's most dynamic annual energy events serving the worldwide energy community: the Power Conference, the 9th International Conference on Energy Sustainability, the 13th Fuel Cell Science, Engineering, and Technology Conference, and the inaugural Nuclear Forum.

Fossil and nuclear power generation, solar, wind, fuel cell applications and much more will be discussed in each of the four concurrent conferences within this larger event.

Participate in the world's leading technical research and applications forum, invited presentations, technical sessions, workshops, panel discussions, posters and exhibition with extensive collaboration between industry, researchers and government. Increase your network and learn best practices in products, materials, systems and services used in the energy industries.

(Track 4-5) Thermal Hydraulics and Computational Fluid Dynamics

Authors and presenters are invited to participate in this event to expand international cooperation, understanding and promotion of efforts and disciplines in the area of Thermal Hydraulics and Computational Fluid Dynamics. Dissemination of knowledge by presenting research results, new developments, and novel concepts in Thermal Hydraulics and Computational Fluid Dynamics will serve as the foundation upon which the conference program of this area will be developed.


(Track 4-6) Materials, Structures and Components

Advances in materials, materials degradation, structural design and analysis methods, failure modes and mechanisms, seismic design and analysis, linear and non-linear structural dynamic analyses, flow-induced vibrations and mitigation, fluid transient analyses in piping systems, fluid-structure interactions in reactor components, noise reduction, building and equipment isolation, vibration damping, containment and building mechanics, structural aspects of shock and explosion, wear experience and mitigation, nuclear power plant construction technology and management. The objectives are to allow authors and presenters to participate in this event and expand international cooperation, understanding and promotion of efforts and disciplines in the area of Materials and Plant Components, Systems and Structures. Dissemination of knowledge by presenting research results, new developments, and novel concepts in operation of existing, as well as the construction of new plants will serve as the foundation upon which the conference program of this area will be developed.
