Leak-Before-Break methodology applied to different piping materials: a performance evaluation
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2019 This paper presents a study of the application of Leak-Before-Break (LBB) to nuclear piping using three different materials. Although had been introduced more than three decades ago, through a fundamentally technical justification, the LBB concept ...

The role of small proteins in Burkholderia cenocepacia J2315 biofilm formation, persistence and intracellular growth [PDF]
, 2019 Burkholderia cenocepacia infections are difficult to treat due to resistance, biofilm formation and persistence. B. cenocepacia strain J2315 has a large multi-replicon genome (8.06 Mb) and the function of a large fraction of (conserved) hypothetical ...

Radiative Transfer in a Translucent Cloud Illuminated by an Extended Background Source [PDF]
, 2017 We discuss the radiative transfer theory for translucent clouds illuminated by an extended background source. First we derive a rigorous solution based on the assumption that multiple scattering produce an isotropic flux. Then we derive a more manageable

Suzaku and BeppoSAX X-ray Spectra of the Persistently Accreting Neutron-Star Binary 4U 1705-44 [PDF]
, 2009 We present an analysis of the broad-band spectra of 4U~1705--44 obtained with {\it Suzaku} in 2006--2008 and by {\it BeppoSAX} in 2000. The source exhibits two distinct states: the hard state shows emission from 1 to 150 keV, while the soft state is ...

Leak-before-break analysis of thermally aged nuclear pipe under different bending moments
Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2015 Cast duplex stainless steels are susceptible to thermal aging during long-term service at temperatures ranging from 280°C to 450°C. To analyze the effect of thermal aging on leak-before-break (LBB) behavior, three-dimensional finite element analysis ...
