Woodruff Engineering Inc

🌟Going Supernova💫 On Friday 13th of September, I joined the UKAEA FIP Education Showcase Event. This is a conference for those who were on the summer placement program to network and share thier experiences with each other and the program managers. I volunteered myself to present, representing Woodruff Engineering Inc in front of the lecture hall about my experience and knowledge gained from tackling the problem of Neutron Irradiation Damage on High Temperature Superconductor (HTS) Coil Performance. It was not easy especially when communicating to the audience about a very complex topic that cover vastly different avenues of science and engineering in 10 minutes. A few of those avenues being Superconductivity, Neutronics, Cryogenics and Heat Transfer. 🧲☢️❄️♨️ Although some of the knowledge has been covered by the optional module I took last year, Nuclear Systems which indeed has covered a lot of key ideas that gave me a strong foundation regarding material damage under irradiation, the problems I have encountered still challenges me a lot. 💻💾 The main thing that was quite new to me was coding. Eventhough I have a grasp of the different languages used, computer programs like OpenMC and MOOSE has remained a "blackbox" to me which is partly due to my limited experience with coding. One aspect that was challenging to manage was the data management between the softwares. After discussing with folks in the field, they introduced me to Cardinal, Aurora Multiphysics and OpenSPDM. I also got to discuss about the future of the Fusion Industry Programme (FIP) and FOSTER with Alexandra Marshall, TCAP, Âû , Lyndsey Mooring and Yogesh Bhide. The idea that stood out were fusion scientific-engineering challenges that could be organized to encourage instituitions to solve key problems in fusion. Hopefully more ideas to come. This experience was truly one of a kind summer experience which scratch the scientist itch I have while being an engineering student. #fusiongeneration #ukaea #fip #netzero

The Royal Society recently published a special edition of its esteemed journal, marking a crucial step in the UK's pursuit of commercially viable fusion energy. Discover how after years of theoretical research discussions, fusion energy is now firmly on the path toward being a commercial reality https://lnkd.in/eEDdD5kc

Under the Fusion Advisory Services, we are conducting a landscape review of scholarships and bursaries available for UK Masters degrees in select courses that are relevant to fusion energy. For this review, we are surveying administrators who run bursary and/or scholarship programmes for students to participate in Masters level courses in the following areas: Engineering (including chemical, mechanical, electrical, nuclear, and materials science) Physics Computing and Mathematics (including data science) Programme/Project Management Procurement Regulation This report will be used to help shape new funding schemes for fusion-relevant Masters programs in the UK. The survey should take approximately 5-10 minutes to complete. If you are involved in administration or are a student in the courses please take a couple of minutes to fill out the survey.
