EPX Users' Meeting 2017
Update - agenda, list of participants and slides available here.
The next « EPX Users’ Meeting » will be held on 13 June 2017.
This year, the Users’ Meeting will take place at the « EDF Lab Paris-Saclay » on EDF’s new Campus (Palaiseau, France), and we would like to thank our colleagues from EDF for this kind initiative.
As for the 1st edition, it will be a great opportunity to bring together EPX users and development teams. The meeting will be structured around presentations of recent developments and examples of EPX applications made by the users. We encourage you to present your work stemming from research projects, or industrial applications as these will contribute greatly to fruitful exchanges and will be a key to the success of the Users’ Meeting.

New visual identity for EPX
EPX now comes with a totally renewed visual identity, composed of a new logo available for download, to be inserted in communications involving the program, and a now color chart and page setup for the current website and the validation and release notes documents.
First EPX Users' Meeting
Update - agenda, list of participants and slides available here.
The first edition of EPX Users' Meeting held in CEA/Saclay on Thursday 2015, June 25th. It gathered around 40 people from 11 companies. The event was built around 8 technical presentations from developers, industrial users and academic researchers and 2 exchange sessions to deepen the bonds between the members of the EPX community.
This event is seen as a success by its participants and should be organized yearly from now, with a widened audience starting from next year.
Getting started with EPX
The slides and exercices from the course given at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Barcelona in April, 2013 are now available in the EPX docs section.
They provide theoritical considerations on the algorithms implemented in the program and well-chosen datasets to start with EPX.
New Video Gallery
A video gallery is added to the What is EPX ? section.
EPX receives the French 2013 Grand Prix SFEN
On June 11th, 2013, the 'Grand Prix' of the French Nuclear Energy Society (SFEN) has been attributed to EPX, highlighting its major contribution over the last 30 years to the safety of nuclear reactors submitted to fast transient accidental situation, such as the Loss of Coolant Accident or the Core Disruptive Accident (see Grand Prix SFEN attributed to EPX).
