Reactor criticals and spent fuel systems similarities
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2022 Many conservative assumptions for subcriticality assessment calculations have to be made in current calculations of spent fuel storage systems. This is due to a fact that there is no available database of benchmarks containing spent fuel or materials ...

Investigating the Microstructure and Mechanical Behavior of Simulant ‘Lava-Like’ Fuel Containing Materials From the Chernobyl Reactor Unit 4 Meltdown [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021 Decommissioning of the damaged Chernobyl nuclear reactor Unit 4 is a top priority for the global community. Before such operations begin, it is crucial to understand the behaviour of the hazardous materials formed during the accident. Since those materials formed under extreme and mostly unquantified conditions, modelling alone is insufficient to ...
