ANALYSIS OF FUEL LONGTERM EFFECTS USING SUBCHANNEL CODES

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, 2010
Thermohydraulic computer codes such as COBRA3C are now becoming in practical use as part of power plant licensing process. One of the areas of interest to reactor designer is the effect due to longterm operations and the changes that might occur either due to irradiation (burnup) effects or thermal stresses in the reactor.

Accuracy and Uncertainty Analysis of PSBT Benchmark Exercises Using a Subchannel Code MATRA

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2012
In the framework of the OECD/NRC PSBT benchmark, the subchannel grade void distribution data and DNB data were assessed by a subchannel code, MATRA. The prediction accuracy and uncertainty of the zone-averaged void fraction at the central region of the 5

Power and Bandwidth Efficient Coded Modulation for Linear Gaussian Channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A scheme for power- and bandwidth-efficient communication on the linear Gaussian channel is proposed. A scenario is assumed in which the channel is stationary in time and the channel characteristics are known at the transmitter.

On Secure Transmission over Parallel Relay Eavesdropper Channel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We study a four terminal parallel relay-eavesdropper channel which consists of multiple independent relay-eavesdropper channels as subchannels. For the discrete memoryless case, we establish inner and outer bounds on the rate-equivocation region.

Closed‐Form Approximation of Average Error Probability With Finite‐Blocklength Coding Over Lognormal Wireless Communication Links

open access: yesIET Communications, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This work extends the Polyanskiy‐Poor‐Verdu (PPV) framework to lognormal wireless links. Specifically, the paper derives a closed‐form approximation for the average error probability under lognormal distribution, effectively generalizing the PPV analysis beyond the additive white Gaussian noise assumption.
