Symposium “Design and Calculation of Complex Structures"
Würzburg, 05. July 2010
 |
On 16 and 17 June 2010, the Babcock Noell GmbH (BNG) hosted a symposium in Wuerzburg on the topic of “Design and Calculation of Complex Structures” with current practice examples from the nuclear and magnet technology industries. Representatives from research institutes and the power generation sector in Ger-many and Austria attended the event which took place in the historic Zehnt-scheune of the Juliusspital Wine Estate. The comprehensive competence of BNG is one of the key factors for the positive response which exceeded by far the prelimi-nary expectations. Due to its range of products and services and its current orders, BNG is renowned as a competent machine and plant manufacturer in the energy sector all over Europe. The guest speakers Prof. Dr.-Ing. Werner Braun, University of Esslingen, and Dr.-Ing. Lutz Nietner of Bilfinger Berger, Central Laboratory for Building Materials Technology, contributed their expertise in the symposium. Some of the highly interesting topics were e.g. “Flow simulations in the environmental systems technology for optimizing operating and investment costs” and “Requirements on design and calculation for manufacture, transportation, rigging and concreting a 200t steel containment liner dome based on the example of the nuclear power plant OL3 Olkiluoto in Finland”. The agenda gave the participating specialists plenty of scope for an extended technical discussion of the presentations. The participants would like to continue to build on the existing and new contacts in future. |
