Toward lattice QCD simulation on AP1000

Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 1992
Abstract AP1000 is Fujitsu Laboratory's experimental parallel computer consisting of up to 1024 microcomputers called cells. It is found that each AP1000 cell can sustain two to three megaflops computational speed for full QCD lattice numerical simulations in IEEE 64-bit floating point ...

Post-Fukushima Assessment of the AP1000® Plant

Volume 6: Nuclear Education, Public Acceptance and Related Issues; Instrumentation and Controls (I&C); Fusion Engineering; Beyond Design Basis Events, 2014
The AP1000 plant is an 1100-MWe class pressurized water reactor with passive safety features and extensive plant simplifications that enhance construction, operation, maintenance, and safety with reduced plant costs. The AP1000 passive nuclear power plant is uniquely equipped to withstand an extended station blackout scenario such as the events ...

QCD on the highly parallel computer AP1000

Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 1992
Abstract We have been running quenched QCD simulations on 32 4 and 32 3 × 48 lattices using a 512 processor AP1000, which is a highly parallel computer with up to 1024 processing elements. We have developed programs for update, blocking and hadron propagator calculations.

QCD ON THE MASSIVELY PARALLEL COMPUTER AP1000

International Journal of Modern Physics C, 1993
We present the QCD-TARO program of calculations which uses the parallel computer AP1000 of Fujitsu. We discuss the results on scaling, correlation times and hadronic spectrum, some aspects of the implementation and the future prospects.

AP1000® Plant Application of Defense in Depth

Volume 1: Plant Operations, Maintenance, Engineering, Modifications, Life Cycle and Balance of Plant; Nuclear Fuel and Materials; Plant Systems, Structures and Components; Codes, Standards, Licensing and Regulatory Issues, 2014
The AP1000 plant is an 1100-MWe pressurized water reactor (PWR) with passive safety features and extensive plant simplifications that enhance construction, operation, maintenance and safety. One of the key design approaches in the AP1000 plant design is to use passive features to mitigate design basis accidents.
