Passive Safety Systems in Advanced PWRs

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2009
Passive safety systems have been widely applied to advanced water-cooled reactors (WCRs), to enhance the safety of nuclear power plants. For the near term and medium term, the Chinese government decided for advanced pressurized water reactors with an extensive usage of passive safety systems.

Statistical power in UK genetic syndrome research; evidence from studies of Down syndrome, Fragile X syndrome and Williams syndrome as model syndrome groups

open access: yesBritish Journal of Developmental Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Research on genetic syndromes is vital to our understanding of how development unfolds, but the rarity of genetic syndromes can mean that studies are carried out with small sample sizes. Small sample sizes can reduce the statistical power of a study to produce reliable and replicable results.

Space–time interference in magnitude judgements revealed by drift‐diffusion modelling

open access: yesBritish Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Space and time are strongly interrelated in human cognition: spatial extent can bias temporal judgements, whereas duration can influence perceived spatial extent. However, the mechanisms underlying these reciprocal effects remain debated. We investigated these interactions using psychophysical measures, individual difference analyses and drift‐

Dissolution Behavior of Simulated Co Colloid in Oxidation Operation Process during Shutdown of PWRs

open access: yesYuanzineng kexue jishu, 2022
58Co and 60Co are the primary radionuclides and contributors to collective dose of PWRs, which may exist in ionic, particle and colloidal state in the primary loop. The pore diameter of the most advanced filter used in chemical and volume control system

ROSA/LSTF test on nitrogen gas behavior during reflux condensation in PWR and RELAP5 code analyses

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2018
We conducted an experiment to clarify nitrogen gas behavior at low pressures during reflux condensation in a pressurized water reactor (PWR) with the rig of safety assessment/large scale test facility (ROSA/LSTF) at Japan Atomic Energy Agency.

From trade‐offs to trade: The effects of framing and social norms on waste supply chain coordination

open access: yesDecision Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract The world generates substantial waste that could serve as feedstock, but often inefficiencies in waste exchange arise, caused by a lack of coordination among companies. When trading waste reuse, negotiators must manage the trade‐offs between supply chain, personal, and environmental outcomes. Unlike studies focusing on monetary incentives (e.g.

Development of an Analytic Nodal Diffusion Solver in Multigroups for 3D Reactor Cores with Rectangular or Hexagonal Assemblies. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
More accurate modelling of physical phenomena involved in present and future nuclear reactors requires a multi-scale and multi-physics approach. This challenge can be accomplished by the coupling of best-estimate core-physics, thermal-hydraulics and ...

Histopathologic Validity and Clinical Reliability of Wolters Classification of Pulpitis: An Exploratory Study

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Wolters' classification of pulpitis has been proposed to classify pulpitis into 4 categories (initial, mild, moderate, severe), aiming to guide clinicians to implement the relevant vital endodontic treatment. The main objective of this study was to test the histologic validity and clinical reliability of the Wolters classification ...

Nudging Inclusion: Nudges That Reduce Effort Increase Pronoun Sharing

open access: yesJournal of Applied Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sharing gender pronouns (e.g., she/her, he/him, and they/them) is an allyship behavior that signals support for transgender and gender diverse (TGD) coworkers and fosters a more inclusive workplace climate. Little is known, however, about how to effectively encourage pronoun sharing among gender majorities. The present work integrates research
