Abstract

The NULIFE (Nuclear Plant Life Prediction) network is a European network of excellence funded by the European Commission's 6th Framework Programme [1] together with inkind contributions of the participants. The network is made up of 11 work package leader organisations (contractors) and about 30 associate contributors and collaborators. NULIFE kicked-off in October 2006 and is working over a 5-year period to create a single organisation structure, capable of providing harmonised R&D at European level to the nuclear power industry and the related safety authorities in the area of lifetime evaluation methods for critical components.
