RISA Self Constructing Wavelet Neural Network Controller to Mitigate the Subsynchronous Oscillations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study proposes a new intelligent controller based on selfconstructing wavelet neural network (SCWNN) to suppress the subsynchronous resonance (SSR) in power systems compensated by series capacitors. In power systems, ...
Mitigating the Stress Corrosion Cracking of Zircaloy 4 Fuel Sheathing: Siloxane Coatings Revisited
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For more than 50آ years, a thin (3–20آ خ¼m) graphite coating has played an important role in limiting the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of Zircaloy4 fuel sheathing in CANDUآ® nuclear reactors. Siloxane coatings, which ...
The Effect of Alkali Metal and Alkaline Earth Metal Impurities on the Iodine-Induced Corrosion of CANDU Fuel Sheathing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: During normal operation in Canada deuterium uranium (CANDU®) reactors, the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of fuel sheathing is mitigated effectively, in part, using a thin graphite-based coating known as CANDU lubricant ...
