The Third International Conference on Fatigue of Reactor Components held in Seville, Spain on 3-6 October 2004 was co-organised by the EPRI, the US NRC and the OECD NEA Committee on the Safety of Nuclear Installations (CSNI) and hosted by the Consejo de Seguridad Nuclear (CSN), Spain.

Fatigue is a primary degradation mechanism affecting nuclear power plant components worldwide. The effective management of fatigue is important to the continued safe operation of plant components during present operation and as plants consider long-term operation. This third conference brought together international experts to discuss significant fatigue issues that affect nuclear power plant operations.
