(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)How to better evaluate the merits of competing technological concepts. This project is concerned with evaluation of the merits of competing technological concepts and managing the R&D investments needed to bring them to ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This paper discusses a possible approach to ranking geographic regions that can influence multiple infrastructures. Once ranked, decision makers can determine whether these regions are critical locations based on their ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This work developed an approach to diagnose problems and identify good practices in the operation of nuclear power plants using the system dynamics technique. The research began with construction of the ORSIM (Nuclear Power ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)Performance indicators have been assuming an increasingly important role in the nuclear industry. An integrated methodology is proposed in this research for the identification and validation of performance indicators for ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)This work investigates whether the advanced light water reactor designs with passive safety systems are more desirable than advanced reactor designs with active safety systems from the point of view of uncertainty in the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)In this thesis, I designed and implemented a particle-in-cell (PIC) code on a graphical processing unit (GPU) using NVIDA's Compute Unified Architecture (CUDA). The massively parallel nature of computing on a GPU nessecitated ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Analysis has been undertaken to investigate the utilization of fuel assembly venting in the reference design of the gas-cooled fast reactor under study as part of the larger research effort at MIT under Gen-IV NERI Project ...

-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)In order to provide improved predictions of Pellet Cladding Mechanical Interaction (PCMI) for the FRAPCON nuclear fuel performance code, a new model, the FRAPCON Radial-Axial Soft Pellet (FRASP) model, was developed. This ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Within the past thirty years, the U.S. government has spent over three trillion dollars supporting research and development projects across its various federal agencies. There is a considerable, long-standing need to ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)The proliferation resistance of a reprocessing facility can be improved by using a novel detection system that utilizes the nuclear resonance fluorescence (NRF) phenomenon to determine the isotopic composition of materials ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)India is in the middle of the biggest expansion of nuclear power in its history, adding 20 GWe in the next 14 years in the form of pressure water reactors and fast breeder reactors. At the same time, the United States is ...
