This technology enables to carry out detailed modeling of construction and installation processes based on 3D-object models which significantly increases quality and speed of work performance.

“Multi-D object model enables to visualize construction process and to train personnel based on this model before going to site. This technology enables to test various scenarios of work performance and to correct the sequence of work performance promptly”, - informed Director General of Rosatom engineering company OAO NIAEP – ZAO Atomstroyexport Valery Limarenko in Nizhny Novgorod at the international theoretical and practical forum dedicated to life cycle management of complex engineering objects.

This technology is already in use at sites in Russia where OAO NIAEP – ZAO ASE operate. At present NPP life cycle management at engineering and construction stages is carried out by means of Multi-D technology. Furthermore currently Multi-D is being prepared to be used at the next NCC life cycle stage – decommissioning.

In addition MultiD is a source of information for purchasing and supply management because it is the one that exactly determines required dates of equipment shipment to installation zones in justintime and opentop systems. Following the results of construction modeling it enables at engineering stage to identify project “bottle necks” and to offer changes for its optimization.

Not quite so. The authors of the concept, which was difficult to be realized in practice, turned to a clearer concept of a standing wave reactor (TP-1) that in principle allows finding the solution to the tasks stated for TWRs.

OPINION

Vladimir Yevseyev
One more round of talks will be held in Moscow on June 18-19 in an attempt to find common ground. There is no reason to dramatize the situation.
