Development and Testing of TRACE/PARCS ECI Capability for Modelling CANDU Reactors with Reactor Regulating System Response

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2022
The use of the USNRC codes TRACE and PARCS has been considered for the coupled safety analysis of CANDU reactors. A key element of CANDU simulations is the interactions between thermal-hydraulic and physic phenomena with the CANDU reactor regulating ...

Canis STR‐Seq: A Universal Approach for Non‐Invasive Genetic Monitoring of Wolves and Coyotes [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We present a new, universal microsatellite genotype‐by‐sequencing assay for Canis species that allows for unambiguous allele calls, flags homoplasy for more accurate assignment tests, and improves genotyping output from low‐template DNA. We suggest, as others have done previously, that microsatellites are still effective, affordable, and sometimes ...

Determination of burnup limit for CANDU 6 fuel using Monte-Carlo method

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2021
KHNP recently has obtained the approval for the commercialization of the modified 37-element (or 37 M) fuel bundle and now is loading the 37 M fuel bundles in CANDU-6 reactors in KOREA. One of the main issues for approval was the burnup limit.

Uncertainties impact on the major FOMs for severe accidents in CANDU 6 nuclear power plant

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2023
In the nuclear safety studies, a new trend refers to the evaluation of uncertainties as a mandatory component of best-estimate safety analysis which is a modern and technically consistent approach being known as BEPU (Best Estimate Plus Uncertainty).The ...

Managing juvenile idiopathic arthritis within the context of their life: What we learnt from children and youth living with juvenile idiopathic arthritis and their parents

open access: yesMusculoskeletal Care, Volume 21, Issue 4, Page 1248-1260, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Introduction Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common rheumatic disease in children and causes short‐ and long‐term disability. Optimal management requires pharmacologic and non‐pharmacologic interventions. Few studies have explored the youth and family experience of the management of JIA.

Recent Progress in Functional Nanomaterials towards the Storage, Separation, and Removal of Tritium

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 35, Issue 48, November 28, 2023., 2023
Tritium is a prime fuel to generate fusion power, but its storage and separation in pure form are major challenges in nuclear industries. This review discusses recent progress and main research trends in hydrogen isotope storage and separation while emphasizing tritium using metal hydrides, nanoporous zeolites, and metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and 2‐

A methodology to designate radiation‐controlled areas in decommissioning nuclear power plants

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 11, Issue 9, Page 3204-3214, September 2023., 2023
Five steps for designating decommissioning radiation‐controlled areas in decommissioning nuclear power plants. Abstract Kori Unit 1, which was permanently shut down in 2017, is expected to be the first decommissioned commercial nuclear power plant (NPP) in Korea.

Modelling and Validation of CANDU Shim Operation Using Coupled TRACE/PARCS with Regulating System Response

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
In CANDU reactors, shim operation is used when the online refuelling capability becomes temporarily unavailable. Adjuster rods, normally in‐core to provide flux flattening, are withdrawn in sequence to provide additional reactivity as the fuel is depleted.

Conceptual Design of a Novel Megawatt Molten Salt Reactor Cooled by He‐Xe Gas

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
He‐Xe gas‐cooled micro‐molten salt reactor (HX‐micro‐MSR) is a novel reactor concept that integrates the technologies of molten salt reactor and closed Brayton cycle (CBC), which has a more compact structure compared with the other types of micro‐MSRs.

Comparative analysis of occupational radiation doses when decommissioning nuclear power plants

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 10, Issue 12, Page 4358-4365, December 2022., 2022
Radiation doses from precedent decommissioning nuclear power plants worldwide are compared with radiation doses estimated from Kori 1, the first decommissioning‐planned reactor in Korea, to determine dose reduction measures that can achieve radiation exposure that is as low as reasonably achievable to decommissioning workers. Abstract Kori 1, the first
