Purdue researchers are contributing to research on a breakthrough design for nuclear power plants known as Modular Boiling Water Reactors (MBWR). MBWRs are inherently safe and include built-in, proliferation-resistant characteristics. Futuristic research on acoustic inertial confinement fusion is underway.
We are creating the Center for Materials Under Extreme Environments (CMUXE) to engage in novel key areas:
