Infographics for Fusion Energy Research Publication
I had the privilege of creating infographic pieces for the arXiv pre-print publication titled "Long-Term Research & Design Strategies for Fusion Energy Materials," a work aimed at guiding materials researchers as they explore the field of fusion energy. This publication highlights critical aspects for scientists venturing into this sector, covering a wide range of topics: - A primer on fusion with a focus on materials challenges and energy flows, outlining key obstacles and unique opportunities in fusion research. - An overview of upcoming prototype reactors and their role as potential platforms for materials innovations. - A research framework emphasizing "iterative co-evolution design" to foster collaboration between materials researchers and fusion-plant designers amidst evolving requirements and regulations in the fusion industry.
