Developing an Australian Melanoma Clinical Outcomes Registry (MelCOR): a protocol paper [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2022
Introduction Australia has the highest incidence of melanoma in the world with variable care provided by a diverse range of clinicians. Clinical quality registries aim to identify these variations in care and provide anonymised, benchmarked feedback to ...

The influence of the water ingression and melt eruption model on the MELCOR code prediction of molten corium-concrete interaction in the APR-1400 reactor cavity

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022
In the present study, the cavity module of the MELCOR code is used for the simulation of molten corium concrete interaction (MCCI) during the late phase of postulated large break loss of coolant (LB-LOCA) accident in the APR1400 reactor design. Using the

Impact of PSI-KIT Nitriding model on hypothetical Spent Fuel Pool accident simulation

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2023
In past years the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI, Switzerland) and the Karlsruhe Institue of Technology (KIT, Germany)) collaborated to develop a model to account for the active role of nitrogen in the air oxidation of a Zircalloy cladding.

Thermal-hydraulic analysis of loss-of-cooling accident in spent fuel pool of Bushehr NPP using the RELAP5 and MELCOR [PDF]

open access: yesمجله علوم و فنون هسته‌ای, 2020
Following the Fukushima Daiichi accident, the simulation of accidents related to the Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) became more important due to the high content of long-lived radionuclides, and lack of the protection by the pressure vessel despite its low decay ...
