Abstract
The international conferences on Structural Mechanics in
Reactor Technology (SMiRT) have traditionally provided
innovative and practical mechanics-based solutions to the
planning, design, construction, operation, and regulation
of NPPs and related facilities. SMiRT 20 will continue
this tradition, bringing together experts and
practitioners from around the world to share their
knowledge of technology that is most relevant at this
time in the nuclear energy industry for both current
operations and future development like Generation IV
design.
