  1. 6. Applications of steel-plate composite structures for nuclear modular construction

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Yann Vicedo; [2021]
    Keywords : nuclear concrete structures; modular construction; steel-plate composite modules; kärnkraftsbetongkonstruktioner; modulär konstruktion; kompositmoduler av stålplåt;

    Abstract : Despite being the world’s second most important low-carbon source of electricity, the development of nuclear capacities is limited and does not comply with the International Energy Agency’s Sustainable Development Scenario. One of the main reasons for this lack of development is high and increasing costs of new nuclear capacities. READ MORE

  4. 8. Emergency Preparedness Process Proposal for Radiological Incidents at Accelerator Driven Facilities

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : Leonie Victoria Stieren; [2021]
    Keywords : accelerator driven facilities; emergency response; crisis management; radiological hazard; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The European Spallation Source (ESS) is an accelerator driven research facility under construction. Once commissioned, a linear accelerator supplies protons to a target, whereupon neutrons are generated through a process called “spallation”. Neutron beam time will be available for a variety of scientific experiments. READ MORE

  5. 9. Mathematical modelling of Degussa Furnace

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap
