Abstract:
A funny thing happened on my way to becoming GODORT chair: after ten years as the regional Federal Depository Library coordinator at the University of Georgia, I accepted a new job outside of the government documents community. As of June 28, 2018, I am the associate dean of libraries for research and learning at North Dakota State University. Obviously, my new job was not on my radar when I agreed to run for GODORT chair-elect in 2017. And while I am no longer a depository coordinator, I am still tangentially involved with the depository community. NDSU is a shared regional with the University of North Dakota, and our regional depository coordinator—Susanne Caro, formerly of the University of Montana—reports to me. In fact, Susanne is the GODORT chair-elect, which makes North Dakota the nexus of GODORT for the next few years. Not bad for a state that, according to the Census Bureau, ranks forty-seventh in population!

Abstract:
It is an honor to serve as the chair of GODORT. For those of you who do not know me, I first worked with state and federal information while at the New Mexico State Library. I left the Land of Enchantment for Big Sky Country in 2011. At the University of Montana I took on the role of regional for the first time, and fell in love with that fabulous collection. I eventually learned that the state nickname did not apply to Missoula with an inversion layer during a nasty fire season. I moved to Fargo in the middle of winter to start at North Dakota State University in 2018, just a few months before our Past Chair started.

Abstract:
To my surprise, my year as GODORT chair is over. Equally surprising: it has been just over a year since I left the University of Georgia to move into library administration at North Dakota State University. While I was in fact job hunting when I agreed to run for chair in 2017, at the time it did not occur to me that there was a good possibility that these two challenging situations would not only overlap but happen simultaneously. Over this past year, I told many people that had I known that would be the case, I never would have run for GODORT chair. In retrospect, I am not so sure that is true. Job hunting is at best a crapshoot; with so many variables and uncertainties, you rarely know how things will go until you get a job offer. I had interviews for jobs I thought would be too much of a stretch given my experience and heard nothing from places I assumed would at least give me a phone interview. My favorite rejection letter was a terse, two sentence email with the subject line “Not Selected” that came months after the position in question was filled. Talk about breaking it to you gently! Although I was getting enough interviews to think I would find a new job at some point, at the time I had no idea when that would be; for all I knew, I would still be at UGA when I started my term as GODORT chair. Ultimately, I decided that being in the middle of a job search was no reason not to run, and so I did; the rest is history.

Abstract:
Assessment at North Dakota State University is considered to be a conversation about learning outcomes enriched by data with a goal of improving student learning. On the classroom level, this focuses on developing techniques to assess course-related knowledge and skills but may also include techniques to assess learner reactions to teaching and their course-related learning, study skills, and self-confidence. On the program level, this consists of an assessment plan and a corresponding assessment report. These assessment plans identify how the entire curriculum will be assessed over time, whereas the report documents plan implementation. The report consists of the activities designed to collect information on the success of each course. These activities may be direct, indirect, or non-measures of student learning. The direct measures along with a few indirect measures provide answers to the university assessment committee on student learning assessment questions: “what did you do?,” “what did you learn?,” and “what will you do differently as a result of what you learned?”

Woody plant improvement research has been an active program at North Dakota State Univ. (NDSU) for many years. Eighteen cultivars have been introduced since 1986, and ≈10 additional releases are anticipated over the next 6 years. These superior, winterhardy cultivars have increased the inventory of adapted woody plants for landscape use in the northern plains, particularly USDA hardiness zones 3 and 4. Emphasis will be placed on recent introductions and promising plants for potential future release. An extensive, statewide cooperative evaluation program is conducted at seven sites throughout North Dakota and also at the NDSU Research Arboretum near Absaraka.

Full text
Abstract:
The desire to attract an increasing number of minorities is pushing institutions of higher learning to brand themselves and communicate with students in ways that ensure their identification with the institution. Students' identification with an institution is one way to increase their enrollment numbers at the institution. This study was interested in determining whether NDSU's Graduate School and Office of Multicultural Programs used Cheney's (1983a) organizational identification inducement strategies in their recruitment and retention material that targeted multicultural graduate students. A closed coding textual analysis was used to analyze the material. Three of the four strategies were present in the analyzed communication material. Results are discussed in terms of key findings and practical implications for NDSU and other institutions that are interested in increasing their enrollment numbers of multicultural graduate students.

Abstract:
Saskatoon serviceberry (Amelanchier alnifolia Nutt.) is an ornamental Rosaceous shrub producing delicate white flowers that yield fruit similar in appearance and nutrition to blueberry (Vaccinium spp.). Most serviceberry are propagated in Canada and, as imported stocks are often expensive, clones were accessed from 70 locations in North Dakota. Following establishment, a replicated field trial of wild biotypes of serviceberry was initiated at the North Dakota State University Horticulture Research Farm (NDSU HRF) near Absaraka, ND and at the Williston Research and Extension Center (WREC) in Williston, ND. Yield data was taken upon harvest in summers 2014-2017 at NDSU HRF and 2016 at WREC. ND 1-2, ND 1-4, ND 1-6, ND 1-7, ND 48-2 often out-yielded market genotypes. ND 15-2 was high in sugar content and gelling ability, ideal for processing. Through continued selection, North Dakota growers may have quality serviceberry from a local source.

Abstract:
Gylcoalkaloids (GA) are plant secondary metabolites that offer pests and disease resistance. Studies show correlation between GA content and CPB resistance. In this study, CPB resistance was assessed in a field trial at Grand Forks, ND, during 2012 for twenty-four genotypes from the NDSU Potato Breeding Program. Two treatments were applied, a block treated with imidacloprid (Admire?), and an untreated block. The treated block showed decreased CPB damage. Presence of aglycons (non-sugar moiety of GAs) was assessed by gas chromatography in foliar and tuber tissue. Distribution of GAs in the tuber was assessed to determine variation in tuber sections and whole tuber. Potato genotypes should be developed with tuber GAs levels below 20 mg/100 g fresh weight (FW) to ensure safety for human consumption. Focus should be on GAs that are only synthesized in the tuber, which will provide pests and disease resistance, while maintaining adequate yields and decreased inputs.

Abstract:
Fat-soluble vitamins are essential micronutrients that are critical in normal physiological processes. Deficiencies can pose increased risk of chronic diseases. This may be particularly important among college students, since the majority of this population is in peak phases of development. The purpose of this study was to determine intake of fat-soluble vitamins in 352 (212 males, 140 females) students. Students completed dietary analyses of their 72-hour food record, which were analyzed to determine if student intake met Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) recommendations. Additional analyses determined relationships between intake and gender, age, and frequency of attending a dining center. Few students met DRI for fat-soluble vitamins A (21%), D (3%), and E (7%). Moreover, <1% of students met the DRI for all 3 vitamins. Frequency of attending a dining center did not improve fat-soluble vitamin intake. In summary, few students are meeting DRI guidelines of fat-soluble vitamins.

Abstract:
Campus safety and security are important concerns for colleges and universities. One way security is addressed is through utilization of self-report questions about criminal backgrounds during the admissions process. The current study evaluates this admissions policy by using a systematic random sample of 1,400 students to compare self-reported criminal backgrounds with criminal records listed in four online databases. Results indicate that two individuals within the sample failed to report their criminal backgrounds which included simple assault, burglary, theft, possession of controlled substance, and drug paraphernalia. While the failed reporting rate appears low, caution should be taken interpreting the results. A number of policy implications and directions for future research are discussed.

Abstract:
The use of Genomic Selection has become popular due to its wide success in private and public breeding programs. The current dissertation aims to derive information that will be used to produce a single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) chip that can be used to successfully predict traits of economic importance for the North Dakota State University (NDSU) barley breeding program. Three training populations were tested to determine which should be used for predictive modeling. Multiple predictive models were employed to verify the most effective method for each individual trait. Through this research, four major findings were concluded: the successful identification of (i) the traits that are candidates for prediction, (ii) the most successful models for each trait, (iii) the minimum number of markers required to predict a trait, and (iv) the markers that should be included on NDSU barley breeding program’s new SNP chip for genomic selection.

Abstract:
Amylose and amylopectin, the mostly resistant and soluble forms of starch, respectively, are two forms of starch present in the granule. In this study, we examined the effect of a new cooking method, microwave steaming, on soluble starch and resistant starch in order to determine and determined that this method may be used as a more efficient means to cook tuber material for starch analysis. Using the steaming method, we found clones present in the North Dakota State University potato breeding program with unique levels of soluble or resistant starch. Clones with high or low levels of soluble or resistant starch displayed diverse granule sizes, pasting characteristics, gelatinization temperatures, and amylose and amylopectin molecular weight and abundance. Greenhouse-grown tubers were found to contain more soluble and resistant starch content than fieldgrown tubers, implying that greenhouse-grown tubers cannot be used to screen genotypes for starch content.

Full text
Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to determine if student housing gender-type is significantly related to student alcohol consumption at North Dakota State University. The researcher examined whether the residence of students in coeducational residence halls or single-gender residence halls was related to the rate they consumed alcohol in an average week or the frequency they engaged in binge drinking. NDSU researchers allowed the researcher of this study to add an institutional question to the biannual Student CORE Alcohol and Other Drug Survey that gathered demographic information about what residence hall gender-type participants lived within. For the first time, this provided the opportunity to quantitatively compare alcohol consumption of students living in coeducational residence halls against those living in single-gender residence halls at NDSU. At the time of this study the NDSU on-campus population was particularly hospitable for such research since the multi-thousand person population was evenly distributed between single-gender and coed residency. Using this preexisting data set regarding student alcohol behavior and residence hall demographics, the researcher analyzed the data through descriptive statistics, bivariate correlational analysis, and analysis of covariance while controlling for the effect of age and gender. Results revealed that there was no significant relationship between NDSU student alcohol consumption and their residence hall gender-type. Recommendations for future research included adapting the national CORE Alcohol and Other Drug Survey to include residence hall gender-type to allow for further analysis.

Abstract:
From 1950-1980, women's intercollegiate athletic programs experienced exponential growth, with newspapers rarely detailing the journey until Title IX passed in 1972. This project examined how women's athletics developed at North Dakota State University, the University of North Dakota, and Minnesota State University Moorhead, as well as the correlating press coverage. Articles from two regional newspapers and three student newspapers from 1950-1980 illustrated the coverage women's athletics received, while women integrally involved in the three athletic programs from 1950-1980 supplemented the coverage and further explained the development. This thesis proposes a cohesive narrative of the press coverage associated with the development of three women's intercollegiate athletic programs in the Midwest from 1950-1980. The project also speculates on the reasons why different newspapers covered women's athletics in the area differently and why 1975 emerged as a watershed year for women's athletics at NDSU, UND, and MSUM.

Abstract:
This chapter will examine the organizational and technological challenges encountered by the highly successful Great Plains Interactive Distance Education Alliance (Great Plains IDEA) since its members began offering multi-university online academic programs in 2000. Members include the following universities: Colorado State, Iowa State, Kansas State, Texas Tech, Michigan State, Missouri, Montana State, Nebraska, North Dakota State, Oklahoma State, and South Dakota State. Inter-institutional online academic programs are a cost-effective means of rapidly increasing access and addressing emerging educational needs. The chapter explains how the Great Plains IDEA began, operates and has evolved, as well as the mistakes made, lessons learned, and upcoming challenges. A major technological challenge was identifying a secure multi-institution enrollment system for sharing student data between enrolling and teaching institutions the award-winning ExpanSIS system. The authors hope that higher education leaders will be convinced that inter-institutional collaboration is a viable solution to many higher education challenges.

Abstract:
This case study explores the journey that allowed the music faculty at a small public university in North Dakota to create a groundbreaking undergraduate online music major. The narrative travels from resistance to acceptance and from tradition to innovation. The events are described from the perspective of two faculty members who approached the adaptation of technology into the music program from polar opposites, one highly in tune with the world of technology and the other highly resistant. This chapter presents the history of the online music degree, including its seminal beginnings, the technology innovations that drove the process, the evolution of essential team buy-in, the skills acquired by faculty, and the processes developed for delivery. Online teaching has energized the music department at Valley City State University and the story is one worth sharing.

Abstract:
The North Dakota State University (NDSU) World Wide Web Instructional Committee (WWWIC) is an inter-disciplinary research team, which has, since the 1990s, developed multi-user, interactive virtual environments (IVEs) to teach the structure and process of various branches of science. The most developed of these include the “Geology Explorer” and the “Virtual Cell,” (VCell). This chapter describes the key features the Virtual Cell and the Geology Explorer, the underlying philosophy and educational theory guiding their development, and results of large controlled experiments that investigate their effectiveness on student learning. Additionally, ongoing projects andexperiments of the team relevant to the development and dissemination of these software programs are explored. The underlying purpose of our IVEs is to increase student achievement and scientific problem-solving skills while providing students with opportunities to learn-by-doing in a real-world context. Research findings collected for almost a decade demonstrate the positive impact of our IVEs on science students.

Abstract:
The World Wide Web Instructional Committee at North Dakota State University has developed a number of serious games aimed at science education. Their games are all multiuser, with a role-based orientation, promoting a task-and-goal cultural awareness. Constructed in collaboration with content experts, these games were developed under a proven set of design guidelines (design principles and signature elements) that serve to preserve consistency among the applications. As a consequence of this high-concept design constraint, their systems share important cognitive and pedagogical features that assist players in learning the serious game content while also allowing for consistent evaluation of learning outcomes across games. The authors have formatively evaluated these games and found them to be effective. It is now their hope that by sharing their design guidelines, others may be able to use and evaluate them to their advantage. The authors continue to develop and refine these design principles and signature elements through basic and evaluative research.

Abstract:
Powerful methods for catalytic, enantioselective intermolecular Diels-Alder reactions have been developed. Ben L. Feringa and Gerard Roelfes of the University of Groningen have shown (Organic Lett. 2007, 9, 3647) that a catalyst prepared by combining salmon testes DNA with a Cu complex directed the absolute sense of the addition of 1 to cyclopentadiene 2 . Mukund P. Sibi of North Dakota State University has reported (J. Am. Chem. Soc . 2007, 129 , 395) related work with achiral pyrazolidinone dienophiles and chiral Cu catalysts. Tohru Fukuyama of the University of Tokyo found (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed . 2007, 46, 5734) that the MacMillan catalyst 5 was effective at mediating the addition of acrolein 4 to the pyridine-derived diene 3, enabling an enantioselective synthesis of the prominent antiviral (-)-oseltamivir (tamiflu) 7. Hisashi Yamamoto of the University of Chicago has demonstrated (J. Am. Chem. Soc . 2007, 129, 9534 and 9536) that the novel catalyst 10 effected addition of methyl acrylate 9 to the diene 8, leading to an elegant enantioselective synthesis of the tetracycle 12, the key intermediate in the Nicolaou synthesis of platensimycin. New illustrations of the power of the intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction have been put forward. Demonstrating the influence of a single subsituent on the tether, William R. Roush of Scripps/Florida found (Organic Lett . 2007, 9, 2243) that cyclization of 13 led to the diastereomer 14, complementary to the result observed with an acyclic triene. Ryo Shintani and Tamio Hayashi of Kyoto University have extended (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed . 2007, 46, 7277) their studies of chiral diene-based Rh catalysts to the enantioselective cyclization of alkynyl dienes such as 16. Jonathan W. Burton of the University of Oxford and Andrew B. Holmes of the University of Melbourne employed (Chem. Commun . 2007, 3954) the MacMillan catalyst 5 for the cyclization of 18 to 19. It is impressive that ent- 5 catalyzed the cyclization of 18 cleanly into the diastereomer of 19 in which both of the newly-created stereogenic centers were inverted.

Abstract:
Although natural amino acids are readily available, there is a continuing need for unnatural amino acids. Jon C. Antilla of the University of South Florida has described (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2007, 129, 5830) a promising approach, based on the enantioselective organocatalytic reduction of imines such as 1 derived from α-keto esters. The aryl group is easily removed to give the primary amine. Mukund P. Sibi of North Dakota State University has developed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2007, 129, 4522) an enantioselective Mg catalyst that mediated the addition of benzyl hydrazine 6 to imides such as 5. The initial adduct cyclized to the pyrazolidinone 7. Karl Anker Jørgensen of Aarhus University has reported (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2007, 46, 1983) a complementary protocol for the enantioselective conjugate addition of a nitrogen nucleophile. Enantioselective homologation can also be a powerful approach. Benjamin List of the Max-Planck-Institute, Mülheim has found (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2007, 46, 612; Organic Lett. 2007, 9, 1149) that three-component coupling of acetyl cyanide, an aldehyde and benzylamine under the influence of the Jacobsen thiourea catalyst 10 delivered the onecarbon homologated nitrile 12 in high ee. Other homologation methods are also effective. Li Deng of Brandeis University has shown (Organic Lett. 2007, 9, 603) that under the influence of cinchona-derived quaternary salts, malonates will add to racemic amido sulfones such as 13 to give the β-amino malonate 14 in high ee. Fujie Tanaka and Carlos F. Barbas III of Scripps/La Jolla have found (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2007, 46, 1878) that the simple organocatalyst proline will mediate the aza-Baylis Hillman addition of an unsaturated aldehyde such as 15 to 16 in high ee. The alkene 17 is the kinetic product. On prolonged exposure to the reaction conditions, 17 was equilibrated to the more stable 18 . Ming-Hua Xu and Guo-Qiang Lin of the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry have established (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2007, 129, 5336) a robust protocol for the enantioselective assembly of -arylated benzylamines such as 21.

Abstract:
Secondary alcohols can be prepared in high enantiomeric excess by catalytic hydrogenation of ketones. Zhaoguo Zhang of Shanghai Jiaotong University has established (Organic Lett. 2007, 9, 5613) that β-keto sulfones such as 1 are suitable substrates for this hydrogenation. Reinhard Brückner of the Universität Freiburg has demonstrated (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2007, 46, 6537) that the rate of hydrogenation of β-keto esters such as 3 and 5 depends on the alcohol from which the ester is derived, so 3 can be reduced to 4 in the presence of 5. Enantiomerically-pure secondary alcohols and amines can also be prepared by adding an oxygen or a nitrogen to an existing carbon skeleton. Both Srivari Chandrasekhar of the Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, Hyderabad (Tetrahedron Lett. 2007, 48, 7339) and Arumugam Sudalai of the National Chemical Laboratory, Pune (Tetrahedron Lett. 2007, 48, 8544) have taken advantage of the previously-described enantioselective α-aminoxylation of aldehydes to establish what appears to be a robust preparative route to the enantiomerically-pure epoxides such as 9 of terminal alkenes. Karl Anker Jørgensen of Aarhus University has developed (Chem. Commun. 2007, 3646) a catalyst for the enantioselective addition of 11 to nitroalkenes such as 10. Armando Córdova of Stockholm University has shown (Tetrahedron Lett. 2007, 48, 5976) that epoxy aldehydes such as 14, easily prepared by the protocol he developed, are converted by the Bode catalyst to β-hydroxy esters such as 15. Hyunsoo Han of the University of Texas, San Antonio has described (Tetrahedron Lett. 2007, 48, 7094) an improved protocol for the enantioselective conversion of primary allylic carbonates 16 to secondary amines 17. René Peters of ETH Zurich has used (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2007, 46, 7704) a related procedure for the construction of aminated quaternary centers. Mukund P. Sibi of North Dakota State University has devised (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2007, 129, 8064) a catalyst for the conjugate addition of the benzyloxyamine 20 to acyl pyrazoles, and Claudio Palomo of the Universidad de País Vasco has found (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2007, 46, 8054) that a simple diphenyl prolinol catalyst will effect enantioselective α-amination of aldehydes.

Abstract:
Academic libraries across North America are restructuring to meet user needs in an e-preferred environment, resulting in major changes to traditional collection development roles and workflows. Responsibility for collection work is increasingly assigned to functional librarians dedicated to collection development activities across a broad range of subject areas, often serving an entire faculty or college. This paper discusses the history, process, and outcomes of the transition to functional collection development roles at two mid-sized universities. Both Carleton University and the University of Guelph support a wide range of undergraduate and graduate research needs from a single central library, but have implemented a different type of organizational design and are at different stages in the restructuring process. One year into their new functional roles, Carleton’s librarians are preparing to assess the state of change around collection development in their organization, and identify next steps for the restructuring process. By contrast, the University of Guelph has worked with a functional team model for ten years, and is undertaking a 10-year review to assess whether the original goals of the reorganization were met. How does collections work compare under a functional team model, compared to a traditional liaison model? Both perspectives offer strategies for consultation and change management that may be helpful to other institutions restructuring their collection development activities.

Abstract:
Nuclear fuel cladding is an integral part of nuclear reactors and choosing the proper material is imperative to the design of a reactor. In this paper, the neutronic properties and the fuel performance of a 17 × 17 Westinghouse Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) assembly using ceramic matrix composites (CMC) Silicone Carbide (SiC) as a cladding material is investigated. The material analysis is compared against traditional Zircaloy-4 cladding used in a 17 × 17 Westinghouse PWR assembly. The codes used in the analysis are the Michigan Parallel Characteristics based Transport (MPACT) code coupled with CTF, the North Carolina State University version of the Coolant Boiling in Rod Arrays Two Fluids (COBRA-TF) code, and the fuel performance code BISON as well as the uncertainty analysis code DAKOTA. Additionally, annular geometry for the fuel pellet is modeled to assess its merit compared to ordinary CMC SiC or traditional Zircaloy-4 claddings. It is found that on the neutronics side, the CMC SiC shows lower achievable U-235 enrichments required to reach the same burnup and effective neutron multiplication factor as Zircalloy-4 claddings. These results are an advantage that can be seen in the economic cost analysis done and additionally from the reactor operation point of view. Also, it is found that the different criteria of safe operation of Westinghouse PWR assemblies like the plenum pressure, the fuel-cladding contact pressure, the peak fuel temperature, and the fission gas release criteria are all achieved with CMC SiC with some criteria having larger design margins than of the Zircaloy-4 cladding. Furthermore, a critical heat flux (CHF) study shows that CMC SiC has even larger thermal margins than the ordinary Zircaloy-4 cladding, resulting in a more profitable fuel cycle due to the greater amount of power that the fuel pins can be operated at. An uncertainty quantification for the CHF Ratio (CHFR) is also done to assess the largest magnitudes of importance that affect the CHFR calculated.

Abstract:
Fluidic Self-Assembly™ (FSA)™ has become a routine manufacturing process in the production of radio-frequency identification tags. FSA operates through the self-positioning of micro-devices into pre-prepared matching receptor sites in a substrate. Research at North Dakota State University has focused on extending the applications of FSA well-beyond the current production routine. This pursuit requires, among other modifications, substantive extrapolation of the size, depth, configuration, spacing and spatial density of receptor sites. Three different test wafer patterns (see Figure 5 for patterns having nominal sizes of 1050μ, 1500μ, μ2150 and 3050μ square receptors with different spacing between them) took into account the corner compensation structure dimensions, which are based on thickness of silicon mold wafer feature to be etched (see Figure 2). The embossing tool (silicon wafer) was patterned photo-lithographically and subsequently wet etched in a KOH 2:1 solution. Experiments suggest shorter tool life in the case of closely packed features (spacing ~ 0.5mm). Receptor profiles evaluated using both optical and mechanical inspection (see Figures 3 and 4) suggest that features having larger size (up to nominal size of 3050μ square) and thickness (nominal depths of 110μ and 210μ) can be embossed accurately for use in FSA by slightly increasing the embossing time in case of deeper receptors. It was also noticed that the relative receptor depths attained with respect to the thickness of the feature on the mold wafer was lower while embossing deeper receptor sites, leading to the conclusion that mold wafers must be etched longer in such cases. The embossed receptor sites were subsequently filled with micro-devices in accordance with the standard operating parameters of Fluidic Self-Assembly process. These sample experimental runs suggest receptors slightly deeper than the micro-devices facilitate higher yields (or fill rates) in FSA. However, in cases where the receptors are too deep relative to the micro-device (&gt; 5μ), air-entrapment occurred between the micro-device and the bottom of the receptor site, which caused problems in post-FSA processes due to air expansion. This paper presents comprehensive guidelines for embossing larger and deeper receptors for effective use in FSA.

Abstract:
While many theoretical and numerical studies have been carried out to study blast induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI), validation of simulation results is still a concern due to moral issues and experimental constraints. Shock-tubes are one of the major means for replicating blast waves in a controlled medium. North Dakota State University Shock-tube (NDSUST) has been designed to simulate the blast shockwaves in an attempt to study and investigate bTBI. However, accurate replication of a blast profile in terms of the impulse and overpressure is highly dependent on the geometrical features of the shock-tube. To this end, numerical methods such as computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis can help to evaluate and increase the efficiency of the current shock-tubes. The NDSUST contains three major parts, namely, driver (the high pressure container), driven cone, and the chamber to setup the head model. The driver and driven cone are separated by layers of Mylar membrane. Shockwaves are defined by three pressure-time characteristics; positive phase (positive impulse), negative phase (negative impulse), and maximum pressure (overpressure). While the current NDSUST simulated most shockwave characteristics accurately, the negative impulse was observed to be considerably long. The diameter of Mylar membrane interface, the volume of the deriver, and the chamber room cross-section connected to the driven cone, were considered as possible parameters affecting the efficiency of the shock-tube. Accordingly, NDSUST was modeled in ANSYS CFX using its actual dimensions. A transient CFD analysis was carried out using ANSYS CFX to simulate the turbulent, supersonic, and compressible flow upon rupture of the Mylar membrane in order to study the pressure wave propagation inside the shock-tube. No-slip boundary conditions were chosen for the shock-tube walls. Driver and driven sections were considered as two separate domains connected using an interface. The shockwave was generated by setting the driver and driven sections at high and low pressures, respectively and running the simulation for a total time of 1 second. The primary results revealed that the current cross-section at the interface of the driven cone and the square chamber caused the pressure disruption (pressure oscillation) upon entrance of the pressure waves into the chamber room. In addition, it was concluded that the driver volume would affect the negative impulse’s duration and the negative peak pressure.

Abstract:
High-fidelity and accurate nuclear system codes play a key role in the design and analysis of complex nuclear power plants, which consist of multiple subsystems, such as the reactor core (and its fuel, burnable poisons, control elements, etc.), the reactor internal structures, the vessel, and the energy conversion subsystem and beyond to grid demand. Most commonly the interplay between these various subsystems is modeled using coupled codes, each of which represents one of the subsystems. And the most common direct coupling is that of thermal-hydraulics and neutronics codes. The subject of this paper is the coupling of codes that model not only thermal-hydraulics and neutronics, but also structural components damage. Furthermore, the neutronic component is not limited to the sole core solver. The coupled code system encompasses thermal-hydraulics, material performance of the fuel, neutronic solver, and neutronic data preparation. Thus, this paper presents a framework for coupling RELAP5/SCDAPSIM/MOD4.0 with a suite of neutron kinetics codes that includes NESTLE, DRAGON and a version of the ENDF library. The version of the RELAP5/SCDAPSIM/MOD4.0 code used in this work is one developed by Innovate System Software (ISS) as part of the international SCDAP Development and Training Program (SDTP) for best-estimate analysis to model reactor transients including severe accident phenomena. This RELAP5/SCDAPSIM/MOD4.0 code version is also capable of predicting nuclear fuel performance. It uses nodal power distributions to calculate mechanical and thermal parameters such as heat-up, oxidation and meltdown of fuel rods and control rods, the ballooning and rupture of fuel rod cladding, the release of fission products from fuel rods, and the disintegration of fuel rods into porous debris and molten material. On the neutronics side, this work uses the NESTLE and DRAGON codes. NESTLE is a multi-dimensional static and kinetic neutronic code developed at North Carolina State University. It solves up to four energy groups neutron diffusion equations utilizing the Nodal Expansion Method (NEM) in Cartesian or hexagonal geometry. The DRAGON code, developed at Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal, performs lattice physics calculations based on the neutron transport equation and is capable of using very fine energy group structures. In this work, we have developed a coupling approach to exchange data among the various modules. In the coupling process, the generated nuclear data (in fine multigroup energy structure) are collapsed down into two- or four-group energy structures for use in NESTLE. The neutron kinetics and thermal-hydraulics modules are coupled at each time step by using the cross-section data. The power distribution results of the neutronic calculations are transmitted to the thermal-hydraulics code. The spatial distribution of coolant density and the fuel-moderator temperature, which result from the thermal-hydraulic calculations, are transmitted back to the neutron kinetics codes and then the loop is closed using new neutronics results. Details of the actual data transfers will be described in the full length paper.
