Crushing behaviour of Li4SiO4 and Li2TiO3 ceramic particles

Nuclear Materials and Energy, 2022
The crushing behaviour of certain ceramic particles–such as Li4SiO4 and Li2TiO3 have been investigated herein, which are considered to be ideal particles for use in the pebble-bed structure of tritium breeding blankets.

Blankets

, 2022
Edition 16 I affectionately refer to this series as the Crow's Shadow Blanket Suite. These prints relate to a project that explores the history of common wool blankets. The colors for the prints are based on wool blankets I've been collecting from thrift

Effect of reactor size on the breeding economics of LMFBR blankets

, 1975
The effect of reactor size on the neutronic and economic performance of LMFBR blankets driven by radially-power-flattened cores has been investigated using both simple models and state-of-the-art computer methods.
