Fluid-Structure Interaction in a 3-by-3 Reduced-Scale Fuel Assembly Network
Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2010 We present experimental results on 9 reduced-scale fuel assemblies arranged in a network of 3 by 3, subjected to an axial flow. The objective is to analyse the fluid force induced by the motion of the central fuel assembly on the others fuel assemblies ...

Chemically Fueled Self‐Assembly in Biology and Chemistry [PDF]
Angewandte Chemie, 2021 AbstractLife is a non‐equilibrium state of matter maintained at the expense of energy. Nature uses predominantly chemical energy stored in thermodynamically activated, but kinetically stable, molecules. These high‐energy molecules are exploited for the synthesis of other biomolecules, for the activation of biological machinery such as pumps and motors,

Fluid Damping in Fuel Assemblies
Volume 4: Fluid-Structure Interaction, 2017 Damping is known to be a major parameter in the seismic design of nuclear facilities. Of special interest is the case of fuel assemblies in PWR plants, which, unlike other components, are submitted to axial flows: it has been known since the late 80s that their frequency response to lateral excitations was largely dependent on the flow velocity, and ...
