Avoiding the harm caused by nuclear radiation is an important topic in the field of nuclear physics. For nuclear radiation protection, it is necessary to show the distribution of radiation dose in the power plants. In this paper, we propose the methods combining ray-casting volume rendering and geometry model fusion to visualize the 3D nuclear radiation dose field. We implement a nuclear radiation dose field virtual simulation system based on Unity3D, combined with virtual reality to help workers conduct nuclear radiation operations and training. Moreover, we plan the maintenance path of the workers based on the NEAT algorithm, thus providing necessary radiation protection measures. The experimental results and evaluation show the efficiency of our virtual radiation dose visualization and simulation system.
