IAEA International Knowledge Base
on Irradiated Nuclear Graphite Properties
Data & Knowledge Contributors
Nuclear graphite data and information is contributed to the Knowledge Base through its Members, either upon their initial joining or through continuing contributions. Knowledge-Base Members are responsible for the collection, validation, categorization, specification and appropriate formatting of nuclear graphite properties data and information relevant to the Knowledge Base.
Data inputs are in the form of Excel spreadsheet(s) which best satisfy the needs of the specialists using the information. Generally, the extracted data, which have been scrutinized by the Technical Steering Committee in terms of Quality Assurance both in their original format and in the input process, are where possible also hyperlinked to the relevant original report or data source.
Knowledge-Base inputs are provided by Members and Associate Members in the form of written documents related to the topic areas in which they appear. These are initially entered in draft form to enable the members of the Technical Steering Committee to consider their form and content. A final version is scrutinized by identified technical "moderators" before being made generally available.
