Abstract:
Phylogenetic diversity of Rhagada land snails is high on the Burrup Peninsula, Western Australia, with four distinct clades, representing three of the four major clades of the Pilbara region. Detailed sampling indicated little geographic overlap of the four clades, conforming to the general rarity of congeneric sympatry in Australian camaenids. The diversity on the Burrup Peninsula includes three previously unclassified morphotypes. One of these lies within the broad endemic clade of the adjacent Dampier Archipelago, and is provisionally assigned to the island species R. perprima, based on phy

Abstract:
The Burrup Peninsula in north-west Western Australia is home to one of the most substantial collections of rock engravings, or petroglyphs, in the world. These petroglyphs are carved through the dark coloured patina, commonly referred to as rock varnish, into the weathering rind of the local parent rock. Rock varnish is essentially a thin layer of manganese (Mn) and iron (Fe) oxides and hydroxides with embedded clay minerals, the formation of which is relatively poorly understood. It is generally considered to be a hostile environment for microorganisms due to extreme environmental conditions

In the two-step method for nuclear reactor simulation, lattice physics calculations are performed to compute homogenized cross-sections for a variety of burnups and lattice configurations. A nodal code is then used to perform full-core analysis using the pre-calculated homogenized cross-sections. One source of uncertainty introduced in this method is that the lattice configuration or depletion conditions typically do not match a pre-calculated one from the lattice physics simulations. Therefore, some interpolation model must be used to estimate the homogenized cross-sections in the nodal code.

Abstract:
Due to high radioactivity and significant content of medium- and long-lived radionuclides, different operations with spent nuclear fuels (e.g., handling, transportation, and storage) shall be accompanied by suitable radiation protections. On the other hand, determination of radioactive source specification is the initial step for any radiation protection design. In this study, radioactive source specification of the spent fuels of Bushehr nuclear power plant, which is a VVER-1000 type pressurized water reactor, was determined. For the depletion and decay calculations, ORIGEN code was utilized.

Abstract:
In preparation of few-group cross-section libraries to be used in WWER macro-calculations, change in the nuclide composition during fuel burnup is commonly defined under invariable characteristics, averaged over the entire core (power, fuel and moderator temperature, moderator density etc.). In reality, conditions of fuel burnup are changing and this factor affects the fuel nuclide composition (the so-called spectral history effect). To account for real burnup history, it is necessary to take into consideration the dependence of cross-sections not only on burnup but also on history of neutron

Abstract:
Since the commencement of the major developments on the North West Shelf, the offshore resource industry, during both its construction and operational phases, has faced considerable logistical impediments to cost-effective solutions for the offshore supply chain. These impediments have included distance, scant resources, lack of infrastructure both on and offshore and lack of critical mass.Throughout the world, offshore projects have greatly benefitted from the availability of integrated services to cater for the transport of equipment from the point of manufacture or distribution to the offsh

Abstract:
The KLT-40S is a small modular reactor developed by Russia based on the KLT-40 reactor with two fuel assembly designs: a four-ring and a five-ring. Few studies have been published on fuel assembly and power-flattening designs for the KLT-40S. In this paper, the effects of different fuel assembly designs on burnup and power flattening are investigated. This paper compares the effects of the two fuel assembly designs of the KLT-40S on its burnup characteristics, analyzes the effects of fuel rod diameter on burnup characteristics, and conducts a computational study on the ideal power-flattening d

Abstract:
Fuel burnup analysis requires a high computational cost for full core calculations, due to the amount of the information processed for the total reaction rates in many burnup regions. Indeed, they reach the order of millions or more by a subdivision into radial and axial regions in a pin-by-pin description. In addition, if multi-physics approaches are adopted to consider the effects of temperature and density fields on fuel consumption, the computational load grows further. In this way, the need to find a compromise between computational cost and solution accuracy is a crucial issue in burnup

Abstract:
Natural thorium contains impurities of numerous isotopes. A study was performed to examine the influence of naturally occurring impurities in thorium-based fuels on a few parameters of interest such as: exit burnup, coolant void reactivity (CVR), fuel temperature coefficients (FTC), and the radiotoxicity of the used fuel. Two different fuel bundle designs were modeled: a 43-element bundle containing 2.25% U-233, and a 35-element bundle containing 1.45% U-233. Naturally occurring thorium fuel impurities were applied to both fuel bundle models at various concentrations, from 0% to 100% of the ex

The present work aims to perform burnup calculation of the OECD VVER-1000 LEU (lowenriched uranium) computational benchmark assembly using the Monte Carlo code MCNP6 and the deterministic code SRAC2006. The new depletion capability of MCNP6 was applied in the burnup calculation of the VVER-1000 LEU benchmark assembly. The OTF (on-the-fly) methodology of MCNP6, which involves high precision fitting of Doppler broadened cross sections over a wide temperature range, was utilized to handle temperature variation for heavy isotopes. The collision probability method based PIJ module of SRAC2006 was a
