Effects of accident management strategy on the severe accident environmental conditions
Annals of Nuclear Energy, 2006Abstract This paper presents a methodology utilizing an accident management strategy in order to determine accident environmental conditions to be used as inputs to equipment survivability assessments. In the case that there is a well-established accident management strategy for a specific nuclear power plant (NPP), an application of this tool can ...

The impact of phenomenological uncertainties on an accident management strategy
Reliability Engineering & System Safety, 1994Abstract Using lower cavity flooding as an accident-management tool to prevent ‘core-on-the floor’ is evaluated. Three phenomena that impact the effectiveness of lower cavity flooding are chosen for evaluation: (1) reactor vessel lower head failure, (2) ex-vessel steam explosions in a BWR, and (3) buoyancy-driven recirculation for a PWR. The merit of

Reactor cavity flooding as an accident management strategy
Reliability Engineering & System Safety, 1998Abstract The impact of uncertainty in the parameters of deterministic models important to flooding the reactor cavity as an accident management strategy on certainty of the outcome is evaluated. Among the possible parameters, only those that can significantly affect the output of the model were selected, based on several preliminary calculations ...

Accident management strategy in Sweden — implementation and verification
Nuclear Engineering and Design, 1994Abstract A comprehensive program for severe accident mitigation was completed in Sweden by the end of 1988. As described in this paper, this program included plant modifications such as the introduction of filtered containment venting, and an accident management system comprising emergency operating strategies and procedures, training and emergency ...

Effectiveness of RCS Depressurization Strategy for Severe Accident Management
Volume 3: Thermal Hydraulics; Current Advanced Reactors: Plant Design, Construction, Workforce and Public Acceptance, 2009In developing the severe accident management guideline (SAMG), it was highly considered to maintain the integrity of reactor pressure vessel (RPV) as a key strategy aimed to reduce the risk of containment failure and fission product releases into the environment effectively.

Management of motorcycle accident–related blunt hepatic injury—a different strategy
The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2010In motorcycle accidents, especially in an urban area with lightweight motorcycles, the belly of the motorcyclist is not protected, and this makes this type of trauma a cause of blunt hepatic injuries. This study investigated the effect and safety of using nonoperative management and selective early angioembolization to treat patients with blunt liver ...

The Use of Influence Diagrams for Evaluating Severe Accident Management Strategies
Nuclear Technology, 1992In this paper, the influence diagram, a new analytical tool for developing and evaluating severe accident management strategies, is presented. Influence diagrams are much simpler than decision trees because they do not lead to the large number of branches that are generated when decision trees are used in realistic problems; furthermore, they show ...
