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
Nuclear Criticality Safety
NCSD provides communication among nuclear criticality safety professionals through the development of standards, the evolution of training methods and materials, the presentation of technical data and procedures, and the creation of specialty publications. In these ways, the division furthers the exchange of technical information on nuclear criticality safety with the ultimate goal of promoting the safe handling of fissionable materials outside reactors.

Session Chair:
Igor Bolotnov (NCSU)
Dr. Nam Dinh is a professor of nuclear engineering at North Carolina State University. Prior to NCSU, Dr. Dinh was a chair professor of nuclear power safety at Sweden’s Royal Institute of Technology, and a Laboratory Fellow at the Idaho National Laboratory. Professor Dinh research in nuclear reactor thermal hydraulics contributed to severe accident management in LWRs and ALWS plants. Professor Dinh's current research is focused on data-driven modeling and validation of advanced simulation codes, applications of machine learning and artificial intelligence in nuclear reactor engineering and safety. He is a Fellow of the American Nuclear Society (ANS) and a recipient of the ANS Thermal-Hydraulics Division’s Technical Achievement Award.
