Richard Denning works on nuclear reactor safety, focusing on how to assess and manage risks in nuclear power plants, including advanced designs like molten salt reactors and sodium fast reactors. His work involves probabilistic risk assessment (a method for estimating the likelihood and consequences of accidents) and severe accident analysis, often connecting technical safety questions to regulatory and licensing decisions.
Publication output has declined from a peak of about 9 papers in 2017 to roughly 1-4 per year in recent years, averaging 1.4 publications annually over the last five years.
