ICONDE

Riho Mõtlep has long time experience in oil shale ash mineralogy, geochemistry and diagenesis studies also in studies of cementitious properties of waste materials. Riho will bring to the project his expertise and knowledge on oil shale ash composition and properties, including cementitious properties, selecting appropriate ash types and designing mortar mixtures. He will contribute to advising and carrying out analytical tasks and characterization of concrete mixtures. He will participate in dissemination and outreach and oversees the progress of the project activities at UT.

Volodymyr Gulik (University of Tartu) is an expert in Monte-Carlo transport simulations for radiation shielding properties of different composite materials. He will be involved in acquiring basalt(boron) fiber, consulting on its use and providing feedback on its test results. He will be leading the modelling of material shielding properties, evaluating the results and providing input on the final mixture design of the material directed to experimental work.

Siiri Suursoo will bring extended competence on nuclear spectroscopy measurement methods (gamma spectrometry, liquid scintillation counting), validation and accreditation of analysis procedures to the project. She will be responsible for conducting radionuclide measurements and method validation as well as interpretation of results and analysis on how to improve the materials’ gamma-ray shielding properties. She will also participate in dissemination activities and in determining future collaboration and funding possibilities.
