Worst‐Case Accident Analysis of Accident Tolerant Fuel in NuScale Using RELAP5/MOD3‐Based Code
International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.Research in nuclear engineering focusses on improving the safety of light water reactors (LWRs), driven by accidents like Fukushima in 2011. The severity of this accident was a result of active cooling system failures and cladding material oxidation resulting in hydrogen explosions.

Calculation of Detection Efficiency for the Gamma Detector using MCNPX
Acta Physica Polonica A, 2015 Radiation detection has been a main interest for researchers as all kind of produced particles in atomic and subatomic physics based on the measurement systems so-called detector. Detection efficiency is one of the main parameter in detection system besides many other different parameters of the detector.
