The NEA will hold a workshop on Structural reliability evaluation and mechanical probabilistic approaches for examining nuclear power plant components on 25-27 September 2006 in Lyon, France. Originally intended to discuss and disseminate the results of the NEA benchmark on probabilistic structural integrity of a pressurised water reactor pressure vessel (PROSIR), the workshop has been broadened to cover current practices and the state of the art as regards mechanical probabilistic approaches. More information is available at www.oecd-nea.org/nsd/workshops/PROSIR/index.html.

Forthcoming workshops and seminars
As part of its mandate, the NEA Expert Group on the CRPPH Collective Opinion (EGCO) is exploring the challenges associated with managing and assessing radiological protection risks. The group held its final meeting on 7-9 November 2005 and is expected to present its draft Collective Opinion for CRPPH review and approval in March 2006.
The NEA Expert Group on the Implications of Radiological Protection Science (EGIS) also met on 7-9 November. The group is focusing on the assessment of ongoing radiobiological and epidemiological studies so that "what if" scenarios can then be explored with respect to possible impacts on radiological protection policy, regulation and application.
