The plasma-facing components of nuclear fusion reactors are continuously subjected to high thermal loads and bombardment by hydrogenic ions, resulting in erosion of the first-wall material and sputtering of atomic and molecular species into the edge plasma. The management of reactor component lifetimes and control of sputtered plasma impurities r…

During the operation of nuclear fusion reactors, plasma-facing components lining the reactor vessel are continually bombarded by plasma species. The penetration and subsequent trapping of these bombarding plasma ions has implications for component damage as well as in-vessel inventory. Accurately predicting the expected ion penetration depth pr…

A new open source tool for fluid simulation of multi-component plasmas is presented, based on a flexible software design that is applicable to scientific simulations in a wide range of fields. This design enables the same code to be configured at run-time to solve systems of partial differential equations in 1D, 2D or 3D, either for transport (st…

The maturation of Virtual Reality software introduces new avenues of nuclear decommissioning research. Digital Mockups are an emerging technology which provide a virtual representation of the environment, objects or processes, supporting the whole lifecycle of product development and operations. This paper provides a survey on currently available …
