Cold Leg LBLOCA uncertainty analysis using TRACE/DAKOTA coupling

Fluent Analysis of a Rosa Cold Leg Stratification Test

One of the OECD ROSA project tests, investigating temperature stratification in the cold legs and the downcomer during ECCS water injection under single-phase natural circulation conditions was analysed with the FLUENT code. The guidance given in the „Best Practice Guidelines for the Use of CFD in Nuclear Reactor Safety Applications” of the OECD GAMA group was followed. Steady-state calculation...

Roughness uncertainty analysis in river flooding using HEC-RAS model

Although flood maps based on the deterministic approach play an important role in minimizing flood losses, there is considerable uncertainty in calculating the level of water inundation. Roughness is a key parameter in water surface elevation. Since roughness is not easily measurable and is estimated based on experimental and laboratory methods, it introduces a significant degree of uncertainty...

Sudden Onset of Cold, Painful Leg

Measuring system value in the Ares 1 rocket using an uncertainty-based coupling analysis approach

Coupling of physics in large-scale complex engineering systems must be correctly accounted for during the systems engineering process to ensure no unanticipated behaviors or unintended consequences arise in the system during operation. Structural vibration of large segmented solid rocket motors, known as thrust oscillation, is a well-documented problem that can affect the health and safety of a...

rodbar dam slope stability analysis using neural networks

در این تحقیق شبکه عصبی مصنوعی برای پیش بینی مقادیر ضریب اطمینان و فاکتور ایمنی بحرانی سدهای خاکی ناهمگن ضمن در نظر گرفتن تاثیر نیروی اینرسی زلزله ارائه شده است. ورودی های مدل شامل ارتفاع سد و زاویه شیب بالا دست، ضریب زلزله، ارتفاع آب، پارامترهای مقاومتی هسته و پوسته و خروجی های آن شامل ضریب اطمینان می شود. مهمترین پارامتر مورد نظر در تحلیل پایداری شیب، بدست آوردن فاکتور ایمنی است. در این تحقیق ...
