Virtual prototyping and probabilistic design of mechanical components. This would lower the costs of very big projects like nuclear power plants and make big nuclear more affordable. Small Modular Reactors are going there but there are proliferation issues and therefore the interest in mammoth plants is not dead yet. One tool nowadays is the CAE suite Tosca by Dassault Systems, which can work with both Abaqus and Ansys. May we have an open source Tosca please? One other issue is data homogenisation, that is to say a template to make the most out of past, present and future applied research in the field. They call it manufacturing 4.0 today.
