Report summary

The 2015-2026 picture for University of California, Berkeley Department of Nuclear Engineering is a 30-PI network with 30 internal PI collaborations. The main research signal is Engineering as the leading field (24% of slots across 14 PIs; 14 labels), Materials Chemistry as the leading subfield (11% of slots across 8 PIs; 8 labels), and Nuclear Materials and Properties as the leading topic (6% of slots across 5 PIs; 5 labels). That is a nice sign for applicants and collaborators, because the network has both density and separable local groups. The leading PI names are Peter Hosemann (63.6 weighted works; Nuclear Materials and Properties, Fusion materials and technologies); Digby D. Macdonald (61 weighted works; Hydrogen embrittlement and corrosion behaviors in metals, Corrosion Behavior and Inhibition). The clearest collaboration lines are Digby D. Macdonald and Balázs Fekete (9 shared works, weight 5.4). The leading breakdown groups are group 1 with 9 PIs, 10 internal connections, weight 18.3, around Materials Chemistry, Metals and Alloys, Mechanical Engineering, led by Peter Hosemann, Digby D. Macdonald, Rebecca J. Abergel.
