Research area of interest
Areas of expertise include radiation
transport and radiation applications, Monte Carlo analysis including
applications to radiographic imaging, reactor analysis and nuclear
power plant dynamics and control, space nuclear power, and radiographic
imaging techniques applied to non-destructive examination. Over
the past 12 years Dr. Dugan has been principal investigator
on 10 contracts totaling over $2 million and co-principal investigator
on 6 contracts totaling more than $6 million. He has published
over 90 refereed technical papers. He is a member of the American
Nuclear Society, the Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics,
the American Society for Nondestructive Testing, the American
Society of Engineering Education and Sigma Xi.
