Additive Manufacturing in the Nuclear and Wind Energy Sectors
-
Published:2023
Abstract
Nuclear energy harnesses the power of atomic interactions, whether through the fission of large nuclei or the fusion of light elements. Additive manufacturing (AM) can play several roles in this sector and is actively being researched and applied, although challenges remain. This article provides a discussion of the opportunities, challenges, and example use cases of AM in the nuclear and wind energy sectors.
