Description
A visualisation tool and methodology to help optimise interventions in radiation areas at CERN is currently being developed within EN-HE in collaboration with DGS-RP as part of the EU-funded PURESAFE Marie Curie Initial Training Network.
The tool aims to merge radiation maps from FLUKA simulations and radiation measurement results with 3-D integration models such as CATIA, providing on-screen visualisation of dose rates and allowing 3-D simulations of interventions in complex radiation environments.
A key benefit foreseen is the facilitation of communication during the optimisation process between staff responsible for accelerator equipment operation, radiation protection staff and designers.
The presentation will introduce the software tool then illustrate its use in the optimisation of the design of the LINAC 4 dump shielding.
