  • Steady State Modeling of the Minimum Critical Core of the Transient Reactor Test Facility

    Creator:
    Alberti, Anthony L.
    Abstract:
    With the advent of next generation reactor systems and new fuel designs, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has identified the need for the resumption of transient testing of nuclear fuels. The DOE has decided that the Transient Reactor Test Facility (TREAT) at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) is best suited...

  • Reduced Order Modeling of Radiation Diffusion Kinetics via Proper Generalized Decomposition

    Creator:
    Alberti, Anthony L.
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, we attempt to overcome the "curse of dimensionality" inherent to radiation diffusion kinetics problems by employing a novel reduced order modeling technique known as proper generalized decomposition (PGD). After verifying a proposed PGD algorithm and associated solvers through various tests, we explore its performance for computing reduced-order...
