1 - Working at the VUB For more than 50 years, the Vrije Universiteit Brussel has stood for freedom, equality and solidarity, and this is very much alive on our campuses among students and staff alike. At the VUB, you will find a diverse collection of personalities: innovators pur sang, but above all people who are 100% their authentic selves. With some...

At SCK CEN, we currently design a lead cooled pool type fast test reactor called LEANDREA. This reactor will be the reactor to test the fuel assemblies and other components for the power LFR SMR EAGLES. The pressure difference between plena in a pool type lead cooled reactor creates a separation between the free surface levels of the plena. The reactor core...

The research will be conducted within the Mecha(tro)nic System Dynamics (LMSD) division, a vibrant and internationally recognized research group within the Department of Mechanical Engineering at KU Leuven. LMSD brings together more than 100 researchers working at the forefront of system dynamics, mechatronics, reliability, digital engineering, and smart...

LEANDREA is a lead cooled fast spectrum test reactor under development at SCK•CEN. This reactor will be the test and demo reactor for the European lead cooled SMR and validate the fuel for this class of reactors. The safety of the EU LFR SMR relies on the natural circulation characteristics under loss of forced flow conditions. During this type of...

From Retrieval to Reasoning: Evaluating Agentic RAG for Engineering Reports Background Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) offer promising ways to help engineers navigate and synthesise large collections of technical documentation. Generating a reliable engineering report, however, is considerably more challenging than...

Background and objective The seismic assessment of nuclear structures under Design Extension Conditions (DEC) requires an understanding of structural behaviour beyond the conventional elastic design range. Under severe earthquake loading, nonlinear behaviour may develop in reinforced-concrete structures, resulting in cracking, stiffness degradation,...

Background and Objective Aircraft impact is an external hazard that needs to be considered in the structural design and safety assessment of nuclear facilities. The structural response depends not only on the aircraft mass and impact velocity, but also on the resulting force-time history, impact duration, impulse, impact area and dynamic characteristics of...
