Prediction of Severe Accident Progression Using Machine Learning With Data‐Driven Surrogate Modeling as Operator Support Tool

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Severe accidents in nuclear power plants (NPPs) pose critical challenges due to heightened environmental harshness that can impair instrumentation functionality. This impairment leads to “blind conditions,” where operators lack essential thermal‐hydraulic data, hindering decision‐making during pivotal moments, as exemplified by the Fukushima Daiichi ...

System dynamics simulation of the thermal dynamic processes in nuclear power plants

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2019
A nuclear power plant (NPP) is a highly complex system-of-systems as manifested through its internal systems interdependence. The negative impact of such interdependence was demonstrated through the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster. As such, there
