Report summary

University of California, Berkeley Department of Nuclear Engineering in 2015-2017 reads as a 11-PI network with 3 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Engineering as the leading field (35% of slots across 7 PIs; 7 labels), Materials Chemistry as the leading subfield (17% of slots across 4 PIs; 4 labels), and Nuclear Materials and Properties as the leading topic (9% of slots across 3 PIs; 3 labels). That is of concern for a 11-PI roster; the strongest pairings may be carrying much of the visible collaboration. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Peter Hosemann (16 weighted works; Fusion materials and technologies, Nuclear Materials and Properties). The strongest pairings are Per F. Peterson and Peter Hosemann (3 shared works, weight 1.6). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 3 PIs, 3 internal connections, weight 3.3, around Materials Chemistry, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Mechanics of Materials, led by Peter Hosemann, Massimiliano Fratoni, Per F. Peterson.
