Sorting Integers on the AP1000 [PDF]

open access: yesCoRR, 2000
Sorting is one of the classic problems of computer science. Whilst well understood on sequential machines, the diversity of architectures amongst parallel systems means that algorithms do not perform uniformly on all platforms. This document describes the implementation of a radix based algorithm for sorting positive integers on a Fujitsu AP1000 ...

Wall-thickness reduction of AP1000 primary coolant pipes subjected to cold roll-forming [PDF]

open access: yes工程科学学报, 2016
A modified Johnson-Cook model was proposed based on the true stress-strain data of 316LN stainless steel and it was successfully used to describe the deformation characteristic of the steel at room temperature and low strain rate.

Reliability Study of the AP1000 Passive Safety System by Fuzzy Approach [PDF]

open access: yesAtom Indonesia, 2014
The Westinghouse AP1000 is a new design nuclear power plant which has implemented the concept of passive system. Even though a passive system may be more reliable than an active one, the possibility of the passive system to fail still exists.

Topography-Free Dual-Lubricant Patterned Slippery Surfaces for Programmable Droplet Control and High-Performance Water Harvesting. [PDF]

open access: yesSmall
A patterned dual‐lubricant SLIPS creates interfacial energy asymmetry, guiding droplet migration without external actuation. Condensed droplets formed on the fluorinated‐oil‐infused regions migrate to the silicone‐oil‐infused domains, where rapid growth and coalescence occur.

Optimization and performance of metafoundations for seismic isolation of small modular reactors

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 38, Issue 12, Page 1558-1582, August 2023., 2023
Abstract This paper aims to study the seismic mitigation of a typical nuclear small modular reactor (SMR) where extreme loading conditions are considered by the safe shutdown earthquake. For this purpose, to reproduce the main dynamic properties of the reactor's reinforced concrete system, a detailed structural model was synthetized, also taking into ...

Numerical Evaluation of Coolability Limits of External Reactor Vessel Cooling Using an Improved Thermal‐Hydraulic System Analysis Code

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The external reactor vessel cooling provides a means to stabilize the molten core inside the reactor vessel during the severe accident in nuclear power plants. For a credible evaluation of the chances of success of in‐vessel melt retention, one requires high‐fidelity predictions on the natural circulation flow around the reactor vessel and, in ...
