A Passive Safety Belt System

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1972
<div class="htmlview paragraph">The geometry and behavior of several front-seat passive belt configurations have been studied and evaluated. General design criteria are discussed.</div> <div class="htmlview paragraph">The preferred solution is a three-point belt with two ends attached to the door.

Variations of a passive safety containment for a BWR with active and passive safety systems

Nuclear Engineering and Design, 2007
The paper presents variations of a certain passive safety containment for a near future BWR. It is tentatively named Mark S containment in the paper. It uses the operating dome as the upper secondary containment vessel (USCV) to where the pressure of the primary containment vessel (PCV) can be released through the upper vent pipes. One of the merits of

Inherent/Passive Safety for Fusion

Fusion Technology, 1986
Fusion's success depends on having attractive safety and economic features. One of fusion's inherent advantages is the potential for being safer than other technologies. We should work toward making the potential become a demonstrable, cost-saving reality.

Design of integrated passive safety system (IPSS) for ultimate passive safety of nuclear power plants

Nuclear Engineering and Design, 2013
Abstract The design concept of integrated passive safety system (IPSS) which can perform various passive safety functions is proposed in this paper. It has the various functions of passive decay heat removal system, passive safety injection system, passive containment cooling system, passive in-vessel retention and cavity flooding system, and ...

NuScale Approach to Passive Safety

Volume 3: Design and Analysis, 2011
The unprecedented seismic event and tsunami that caused the prolonged power outage at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant have highlighted the importance of establishing stable long term cooling of the nuclear fuel and the containment following a complete station blackout.

ITER inherent/passive ultimate safety margins

Fusion Engineering and Design, 1998
Abstract The self-limiting nature of the fusion reaction, modest mobilizable radioactive inventories, multiple confinement layers, and passive decay heat removal, suggest that ITER will be ‘safe’ with little dependence on engineered ‘safety systems’ for public protection.

PASSIVE AND SEMI-PASSIVE SEAT BELTS FOR INCREASED OCCUPANT SAFETY

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1972
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Developments leading to passive seat belts are discussed. A problem in semantics is identified, and a distinction is drawn between “passive” and “semi-passive” seat belts.</div> <div class="htmlview paragraph">A low-injury passive seat belt precursor is described, having a continuous webbing loop for ...

Improvement of Passive Safety of Reactors

Nuclear Science and Engineering, 1987
A new subsystem called the passive safety and shutdown system (PSSS) is proposed to improve nuclear reactor safety. The subsystem can be added to the existing reactor coolant system (RCS) by a slight modification. To exemplify how the subsystem improves pressurized water reactor safety, anticipated transient without scram under loss of normal ac power ...

Limits of cars’ passive safety

Securitas Vialis, 2010
Todavia hay grandes bolsas de gente que no tienen acceso a los automoviles y no han satisfecho su deseo innato a la movilidad. Por tanto, cada vez habra mas coches. Por otro lado, las materias primas y los recursos naturales son cada vez mas escasos. Con lo cual, los vehiculos seran cada vez mas caros.
