ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Thermal Hydraulics
The division provides a forum for focused technical dialogue on thermal hydraulic technology in the nuclear industry. Specifically, this will include heat transfer and fluid mechanics involved in the utilization of nuclear energy. It is intended to attract the highest quality of theoretical and experimental work to ANS, including research on basic phenomena and application to nuclear system design.

R&D Fellow
Dow
Scott J. Bury is an R&D Fellow in Dow's Core R&D organization. Scott started his 32-year and counting Dow adventure at the Plaquemine, Louisiana site in the Environmental Research Group. After a few years, he became the first member of the new Process Optimization R&D group. Over the past two decades, he has helped to grow and shape the group, now called Machine Learning, Optimization, and Statistics(MiLOS), through technology development, value delivery and recruiting talented young researchers. His research portfolio includes operations research, process modeling, operational reliability, product design for reliability, and discrete manufacturing modeling. His current focus is mentoring all the new members of the MiLOS team and working with Dow's Energy and Climate Business to explore nuclear power for decarbonization. He participates in several external technology programs and National Lab collaborations and is active in Dow's University Research Program.
