(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)The production of clinically sufficient dose rates in Accelerator-based Neutron Capture Therapies (ABNCT) requires targets that can withstand ion beams of 2-10 kW or higher. Designing such a target requires knowledge of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1975)This is a report of the experimental results of a program in countercurrent flow critical heat flux. These experiments were performed with Freon 113 at 200 psia in order to model a high pressure water system. An internally ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)As part of a multi-scale approach for modeling hydrogen embrittlement in hardened steels we have investigated, employing density functional theory methods, the stability and concentrations of the point defect clusters ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Rising natural gas prices and growing concern over CO₂ emissions have intensified interest in alternative methods for producing hydrogen. Nuclear energy can be used to produce hydrogen through thermochemical and/or ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a biochemically targeted form of radiotherapy for cancer. In BNCT, a compound labeled with the stable isotope boron-10 is systemically administered, and tumor cells selectively uptake ...
-
(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 ...
