In Vessel Retention Analisys with Astec code [PDF]

, 2012
A Severe Accident countermeasure can be the retention of the melted core inside the reactor vessel. A way to achieve this kind of corium retention is by removing heat from the steel vessel by flooding the reactor cavity. A first calculation was performed

Beyond Visual Scoring: Computational Computed Tomography Analysis for High‐Resolution Computed Tomography–Based Quantification of Interstitial Lung Disease in Inflammatory Rheumatic Disease

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with inflammatory rheumatic disorders (IRDs). High‐resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is widely considered the gold standard for the noninvasive assessment of ILD; however, its interpretation is constrained by substantial interobserver variability and the ...
