A parallel numerical computation of nucleon scattering from nuclei, including full spin coupling and coulomb forces

Creator:

Mefford, Tim

Abstract:

The microscopic, momentum space, optical potential description of spin 1/2 x 1/2 scattering is extended to include the coupling of the singlet-triplet spin channels and the exact handling of the Coulomb force. Computing performance in constructing the optical potential and in solving the coupled-channels Lippmann-Schwinger equations is enhanced by parallelization...

Feasibility Study of Using HANARO Fuel Rods in WWR-SM Reactor

Creator:

Peguero, Lara M.

Abstract:

Interest in increased fuel supply stability has driven an investigation into possible alternate fuel for use in the WWR-SM research reactor at the Institute of Nuclear Physics in Uzbekistan. The WWR-SM is a high-power, pool-type research reactor currently utilizing IRT-4M fuel made by a single Russian supplier. A candidate for...

Feed-and-bleed transient analysis of OSU APEX facility using the modern Code Scaling, Applicability, and Uncertainty method

Creator:

Hallee, Brian Todd

Abstract:

The nuclear industry has long relied upon bounding parametric analyses in predicting the safety margins of reactor designs undergoing design-basis accidents. These methods have been known to return highly-conservative results, limiting the operating conditions of the reactor. The Best-Estimate Plus Uncertainty (BEPU) method using a modernized version of the Code-Scaling,...
