Monte Carlo Modeling of an X-ray Fluorescence Detection System by the Mcnp Code

Modeling and Simulation Optimization Using Evolutionary Computation

Evolutionary computation (EC) is a general term applied to a group of global optimization techniques whose main characteristics are inspired by biological evolution. Instead of working with one possible solution at a time, they usually start with a population of random solutions. The initial population evolves into a better set of solutions through three main processes: selection, recombination...

Eolian deformation detection and modeling using airborne laser altimetry

Monitoring of landscapes or sea bottoms by means of laser altimetry or multibeam results in huge amount of data covering the same area in different epochs. Often stable benchmarks are not available in the area covered. We propose a geodetic/geostatistical method to analyze possible deformations in such area out of time series of data. The method is used for a deformation analysis of six consecu...

Conceptual Design and Simulation of Alpha-Beta Detector for Surface Contamination Measurements

The radioactive contamination measurement is essential in nuclear facilities. Monitoring of low level alpha and beta contamination is possible using light detectors high efficiency. Due to the fact that many detectors canchr('39')t simultaneously discriminate alpha, beta and gamma rays; among existing methods, phoswich detectors would be appropriate option to measure different radioactive conta...

Reliability analysis of repairable systems using system dynamics modeling and simulation

Repairable standby system’s study and analysis is an important topic in reliability. Analytical techniques become very complicated and unrealistic especially for modern complex systems. There have been attempts in the literature to evolve more realistic techniques using simulation approach for reliability analysis of systems. This paper proposes a hybrid approach called as Markov system ...
