Benchmarking a first-principles thermal neutron scattering law for water ice with a diffusion experiment

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
The neutron scattering properties of water ice are of interest to the nuclear criticality safety community for the transport and storage of nuclear materials in cold environments.

Simulation of coarse mixing of the vapour explosion

open access: yesComputer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2023
The vapour explosion is a violent explosive phenomenon which may occur when two kinds of liquid of different temperature contact suddenly. Analysis of this phenomenon is needed in terms of safety evaluation of nuclear reactors, examination of volcanic ...

Rotary-Atomizer Electric Power Generator [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Applied, 2015
We report experimental and theoretical results on a ballistic energy-conversion method based on a rotary atomizer working with a droplet acceleration-deceleration cycle. In a rotary atomizer, liquid is fed onto the center of a rotating flat surface, where it spreads out under the action of the centrifugal force and creates "atomized" droplets at its ...

Heat transfer deterioration mechanism for water at supercritical pressure

open access: yesInternational Journal of Thermofluids, 2020
Heat transfer deterioration (HTD) phenomena in supercritical water is one of the most thermal hydraulic critical issues for supercritical reactors. The onset of heat transfer deterioration and bouncy effect have been studied in details, however limited ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Investigation on ultimate strength of thin wall tee pipe for sodium cooled fast reactor under seismic loading

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2016
It is important to investigate the failure mode and ultimate strength of piping components in order to evaluate the seismic integrity of piping. Many failure tests of thick wall and high pressure piping for Light Water Reactors (LWRs) have been ...

Photosynthesis under far‐red light—evolutionary adaptations and bioengineering of light‐harvesting complexes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phototrophs evolved light‐harvesting systems adapted for efficient photon capture in habitats enriched in far‐red radiation. A subset of eukaryotic pigment‐binding proteins can absorb far‐red photons via low‐energy chlorophyll states known as red forms.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Remaining and emerging issues pertaining to the human reliability analysis of domestic nuclear power plants

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2019
Probabilistic safety assessments (PSA) have been used for several decades to visualize the risk level of commercial nuclear power plants (NPPs). Since the role of a human reliability analysis (HRA) is to provide human error probabilities for safety ...
