Creator:: Higgins, Anton
Abstract:: The United States currently has no infrastructure to provide a fast neutron flux for research purposes. With the increased interest in Sodium Fast Reactor (SFR) technology, this type of infrastructure is necessary for further development of key components such as Versatile Test Reactor. The purpose of this research is to...

Creator:: Chen, Tsung-Wen
Abstract:: Power transient boiling has been studied for decades, however, the mechanistic understanding of phenomena which occur during such an event remains incomplete. Due to a dearth of systematic researches, the information of studied phenomenon, detailed physics and applicable hypothesis are very limited. Transient critical heat flux (CHF) is paramount in...

Creator:: Gjemso, Jonathan
Abstract:: The subject of fluid-structure interactions (FSI) are a matter concerning the design of any element immersed in a fluid. One of the most critical phenomena embedded within the scope of FSI is the creation of vortex-induced vibrations (VIV). These type of vibrations originate in a given body as a result...

Creator:: Powers, Robert D.
Abstract:: There are efforts underway at Idaho National Laboratory to design, modify, and implement an array of techniques into a nuclear material ready Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) to accelerate comprehensive characterization of the physical properties and microstructures of irradiated fuels and materials. The goals of adding a micro four-point probe (M4PP)...
