b'TALENT PIPELINE: The main benefits of the new tool are: (1) a cost-effective approachfast Tsvetoslav Pavlov, INLdetermination of multiple properties using existing facilities; (2) ability to design Russell L. Heath Distinguished Postdoc experiments in a fast and inexpensive manner using FEM; and (3) a state-of-the-art AWARD: methodology that has the potential to make both scientific and commercial impact.Exceptional contributions award PRESENTATIONS:at INLs Materials and Fuels Complex Pavlov, T.
