Clockwise from the top:
Computation, with the Cronos2 software program from CEA‘s
Saphyr system, of the fine structure of the thermal flux at the interface
of uranium and MOX fuel assemblies in a water-cooled reactor, close to
a reflector.
CEA/DEN/SAC/DM2S/SERMA
Three-dimensional structure of transferrin with, at center,
shown as rods, the amino acids (carbon atoms shown in green, nitrogen
in blue and oxygen in red) involved in complexation of iron (orange).
The remainder of the protein is shown in a ribbon representation, with
a helices (red and yellow) and b sheets (blue arrows). The complexation
site is in the hinge region of the protein that permits the site to open
and close, thus explaining the mechanism of iron complexation and release.
David Rinaldo (CEA-CNRS-UJF/IBS/Molecular Dynamics Laboratory)
Molecular-dynamics simulation of the joining of dislocations
in a material under the impact of irradiation-induced atom-displacement
cascades. White spheres represent the atoms materializing the two dislocations
and their junction; orange, green and red spheres represent irradiation-induced
defects - vacancies, interstitials and displaced atoms respectively.
CEA/DEN/DECM/SRMP/N. V. Doan
An operator moves in a 3D environment rendered by the
Phare platform and displayed by a stereoscopic visualization system comprising
two work surfaces (wall and floor) and stereoscopic retroprojectors.
F. Vigouroux/CEA/List
3D simulation carried out with the Tera supercomputer,
set up at the end of 2001 at CEA‘s DAM-Ile de France Center, at
Bruyères-le-Châtel (Essonne département).
