is knowledge in the nuclear domain. Note: Nuclear knowledge is characterised by a unique combination of factors which make the management of it particularly challenging, these are: fragmentation, safety, complexity, government involvement, high costs, long timescales, international cooperation and education. Scope of NK is broad and multi-disciplinary and encompasses basic science and engineering theory and principles (nuclear and non-nuclear) as well as applied knowledge in the form of specific realized designs or technologies (both on paper and in reality). In terms of tacit knowledge, it also includes the competencies required at individual, organizational, national (or perhaps at least “industrial technology platform infrastructure”) levels. It must be adequately complete and accessible and maintainable such that it can sustain the entire nuclear technology life-cycle objectives of safety and economics. A very key and important part of NK is design knowledge and design basis knowledge.
