The Importance of Atmospheric Dispersion Modeling

Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) are poised to be the next big thing in clean electricity generation and district heating applications. Unlike conventional nuclear plants that are usually deployed in remote areas for safety reasons, SMRs can be potentially located close to end users in urban environments, which is crucial to minimize energy losses. One of the key steps to achieve this goal is to come up with realistic sizing of emergency planning zones (EPZs) around SMRs as large, excessively conservative EPZs may make SMR siting in urban environments a non-starter.

Project Manager Essentials for Professional Engineers

When leading an Engineering Project, whether it be Process, Product or Service, elaborate software and checklists alone do not ensure projects will achieve the desired outcomes. These are merely the mechanics. The true essence of Engineering projects is aligning the whole organization to the corporate strategy. There are fundamental project management principles that are critical to success, particularly for Professional Engineers.
