Description

SINDRI (Synergistic utilisation of INformatics and Data centRic Integrity engineering) is a five year, ~£6M, EPSRC Prosperity Partnership between EDF and the Universities of Bristol, Manchester, and Imperial College.

It started in May 2021, and is expected to be completed in mid-2026


Its vision is to reduce the cost of nuclear power generation through changes in the processes related to design, fabrication, and life-time assessment.

SINDRI is exploiting the opportunity of digitally enabled materials to accelerate the implementation of novel designs, fabrication methods, and structural performance assessments.

It will take advantage of new materials modelling frameworks and high-fidelity validation experiments to replace existing manual design and assessment processes with a virtual environment that uses open-source, inter-connected, multi-physics, modular models.

These offer the opportunity of integration into EDFs Federated Digital Twin.

(5) They will take part in project technical and management meetings, and disseminate their results to project partners.

(6) They will liaise closely with industry collaborators from EDF Energy to facilitate take up of new modelling techniques in industry

(7) They will also perform any necessary software development in a controlled and fully documented fashion, so the software may be readily and reliably used by others.
