Numerical Study of Energy Loss by a Nanomechanical Oscillator Coupled to a Cooper Pair Box [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We calculate the dynamics of a nanomechanical oscillator (NMO) coupled capacitively to a Cooper pair box (CPB), by solving a stochastic Schrodinger equation with two Lindblad operators.

Normal and Accidental Scenarios Analyses with MELCOR 1.8.2 and MELCOR 2.1 for the DEMO Helium‐Cooled Pebble Bed Blanket Concept

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
As for Light Water Reactors (LWRs), one of the most challenging accidents for the future DEMOnstration power plant is the Loss of Coolant Accident, which can trigger the pressurization of the confinement structures and components. Hence, careful analyses have to be executed to demonstrate that the confinement barriers are able to withstand the pressure
