Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper gives a complete account of recent work on the prediction of power restoration in severe accidents and events, and quantifies the benefits and impact of deploying back-up or emergency power systems in nuclear ...
Risk-Informing Nuclear Reactor Safety: The Prediction of the Probability of Core Damage Due to Loss of Power and Cooling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The modern idea of risk-informed decision-making (RIDM) is here critically examined for all existing, advanced and, generation-IV nuclear reactor systems. Motivated by the predictive difficulties of probabilistic risk ...
