Possibility of a life-time extension for wwer-1000 reactor pressure vessels beyond the design period
At present a life-time extension for WWER-1000 reactor pressure vessels is an actual issue in Ukraine. For a decision about the life-time extension it is needed to assess mechanical properties and the critical brittleness temperature TK for the RPV ...

On the Modelling of Thermal Aging through Neutron Irradiation and Annealing
A new method predicting long‐term thermal embrittlement of steel caused by P segregation is verified. The method is based on the results of impact strength or fracture toughness tests using specimens after relatively short‐term neutron irradiation followed by annealing.

A Comprehensive Survey on Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm and Its Applications
Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a heuristic global optimization method, proposed originally by Kennedy and Eberhart in 1995. It is now one of the most commonly used optimization techniques. This survey presented a comprehensive investigation of PSO.
