Locating Nuclear Power Plants Underground
Environmental Letters, 1975This paper reviews some of the questions that have been asked by experts and others as to why nuclear power plants are not located or placed underground. While the safeguards and present designs make such installations unnecessary, there are some definite advantages that warrant the additional cost involved.

Nuclear Power Plants and Maintainability
Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 1965The expanding use of nuclear energy in the power generation field is such that the maintainability aspects of design and maintenance concepts will soon be of interest to an increasingly larger number of designers, logisticians and human factors engineers.

Fission power plants take advantage of the dependence of the binding energy per nucleon binding energy per nucleon on the mass of nuclei. The binding energy of uranium is about 7.5 MeV/nucleon, that of the fission products is about 8.5 MeV/nucleon. Since the fission products are more tightly bound, they have a smaller mass per nucleon. The fission of a

NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS UNDERGROUND
1981ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to review a number of design proposals and to summarize and assess the current state of the art in underground nuclear power plant design. In addition some conclusions is drawn and a model of a safe nuclear power plant underground is suggested.

Downsizing nuclear power plants
IEEE Spectrum, 2010A standard nuclear power plant generates a gigawatt or more of low-carbon power, a boon in this age of anxiety over climate change. The problem is getting the thing built in the first place: At US $7 billion to $10 billion apiece, nuclear plants are tough for even the largest utilities to finance.
