Book Description
The ENS Class 1 Topical Meeting on “Research Facilities for the Future of Nuclear Energy” provided an international scientific and technical forum for a broad review, at world level, of the large research facilities, dedicated for tests for nuclear energy production, which are existing, under construction, or planned for the future. The research facilities covered during the conference are those supporting R&D programmes related to the operation of nuclear reactor power plants and the development of new concepts in the areas of material testing, nuclear data measurements, code validation, fuel cycle, reprocessing, and waste disposal.The conference was relevant to a wide range of people such as the operators and managers of research facilities, research organizations that depend on the facilities for results, young professionals who will shape future requirements, nuclear utilities, vendors (fuel, components), service and engineering companies, designers, plant operators, waste management agencies, licensing authorities, and the decision makers.

Book Description
Modern geoscience research informs many important decisions and projects, such as geological disaster preparation, natural resource extraction, and global development. This critical research relies on technology and collaboration at state-of-the-art seismological and geodetic facilities. Currently, these facilities provide a wide variety of observation systems that support scientists' understanding of Earth and its changing environmental systems. As emerging technologies develop rapidly, seismological and geodetic facilities have new capabilities and more complex management and research communication systems. This requires a reevaluation of management structures and best practices within these facilities. The National Academies convened a 1.5-day workshop to discuss management models of theoretical seismological and geodetic facilities of the future. Initial discussions built upon a 2015 Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology community workshop report, which identified current and future capabilities of these research facilities. Management models from other types of scientific facilities were used as a springboard for further discussions about management and decision-making models that could be applied to seismological and geodetic facilities. Workshop participants also emphasized the importance of distributing capabilities among multiple facilities. Lastly, this workshop explored complex management topics in these facilities including instrumentation, user support services, data management, education and outreach, and workforce development capabilities. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.

Work on the Move 3 has been written at a time when a radical rethinking of the workplace has proved essential due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The chapter on the hybrid workplace explores the trend toward more flexible workplaces that can blend the benefits of offices for collaborative work. The chapters on health and wellness, sustainability and design envision future workplaces that are kinder to human beings and our planet. The diversity, equity and inclusion chapter examines the issues of bias and fairness within the profession, as well as the potential that facility management can provide to those who are economically disadvantaged. The technology, real estate and facility services chapters provide insight into the practical business aspects of workplaces in the post-pandemic future. Finally, the chapter on workforce and workplace trends provides a global perspective on how all of these issues have evolved in the past and are likely to proceed into the future.As the world recovers from the Covid-19 pandemic, the book helps to envision how the world can create, operate and manage inspiring, collaborative and effective the workplaces needed in the post-pandemic future.
