Abstract:
The Office for the Study of Aging (OSA) at the University of South Carolina was established in 1988 in conjunction with the founding of the South Carolina Alzheimer’s Disease Registry. Over the last 25 years, the Office for the Study of Aging has furthered its purpose through the development of research and programs for all of South Carolina’s aging population. Examples include the Placemat Strength Training Program, the Dementia Dialogues education program, and the South Carolina Vulnerable Adult Guardian ad Litem program. The work of the office is sustained through a unique government–university–community partnership that supports innovative work and provides direct lines for dissemination, translation, and implementation of programs. The office’s efforts have resulted in two state laws involving aging and older adults as well as recognition through awards and publications. The Office provides a partnership model that offers a dissemination and translation pipeline for programs to be developed, piloted, revised, and enacted into policy.

Abstract:
Objective. To assess the occurrence of various vascular aging phenotypes among young people, depending on the level of blood pressure (BP) and in relation to risk factors (RF) and the presence of connective tissue dysplasia (CTD).Design and methods. In total, 250 young people (88 boys and 162 girls) aged from 18 to 25 years old were examined at the University Health Center. All the subjects were divided into tercile groups based on cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI), determined by the VaSera-1500 (Fucuda Denshia, Japan). According to the latest expert recommendations the third tercile group corresponds to early vascular aging or EVA syndrome. The first tercile group corresponds to favorable vascular aging. We have analyzed the representation of various vascular phenotypes in individuals with elevated and normal BP, as well as the main RF and external signs of CTD in each of CAVI-tercile group. Data processing was performed using the software package “Statistica 10.0” (StatSoft Inc., USA).Results. Among young people with office hypertension and high normal BP, the EVA phenotype and phenotypes of normal and favorable vascular aging are equally distributed. In persons with office normal and elevated BP, vascular stiffness correlates with weight, body mass index and waist circumference (with the increase in arterial rigidity these indicators decrease). CTD is registered among subjects with severe vascular remodeling both in boys and girls.Conclusions. Our data indicate the feasibility of angiology screening for identification of vascular aging phenotypes as a part of preventive measures among young people, regardless of the level of initial office BP. This strategy strategy will contribute to a more differentiated identification of risk groups and more individualized preventive interventions based on vascular aging phenotypes.

Abstract:
The Arrhenius method was used to investigate the effect of accelerated aging conditions on the physical and mechanical properties of polymer films for technical, medical, food and office applications. Temperature and UV radiation were taken into account as environmental factors. It was shown that the tested films are more sensitive to thermal degradation than UV radiation. The reduction in tensile strength after thermal aging does not exceed 40%, and in the case of UV radiation, 14%. The estimated lifetime of the tested films is over 5 years.

Abstract:
South Korea has industrialized and urbanized rapidly since the 1970s, and subsequently, the historic downtown areas of major cities have been hollowed out as the population and industry have become concentrated in urban centers. Based on the Urban Decline Indicators of Korea, in accordance with the Urban Revitalization Act of the South Korean government, a comparative analysis of the population changes, office vacancy rate, building aging rate, decrease in the number of industries and employees, and housing supply and demand in historic downtown areas and new urban areas of six major South Korean cities demonstrated that all six historic downtown areas have declined significantly. Currently, little research is available in South Korea on the expansion of urban living and the inflow of urban residents through office-to-residential building conversion. Therefore, this study explores the expansion of urban residences to revitalize these historic downtown areas. To this end, this study examines the feasibility of converting poorly functioning, vacant offices in historic downtown areas into residential spaces to present a sustainable strategy for their complexation. This study finds that office-to-residential building conversion is a sustainable way to recover urban space and grow the population and industry in historic downtown areas.

Abstract This presentation will discuss how we used CIAW 2017 to promote intergenerational community engagement by collaborating with our office of Continuing Education and AARP Connecticut to host “#DisruptAging – A Conversation Across Professions, Perspectives, and Generations.” Together we developed a half day program designed to build bridges among academic institutions, aging professionals, community collaborators, and consumers who are passionate about aging issues. We brought together a multi-generational audience of professors, students, professionals, and representatives of various community organizations to discuss ways to change the conversation around aging. This gave us an opportunity to highlight our gerontology programs and showcase our gerontology students, while students learned about aging-related careers, public policy initiatives, and organizations in Connecticut that support older adults and their families.

Abstract:
This work looks at a range of copying processes used between 1950 and 1970 and which can be gathered under the heading 'Thermography'. Thermography is a broad term covering those processes which utilise heat to produce their image. The main aims of the work were: to examine how and when each process was used; to determine the chemistry of each process; to examine the permanence of existing copies produced using the various processes; and to look at possible ways of improving the preservation prospects of these copies. These aims were addressed through both primary and secondary research mechanisms. Research included examination of documentary source material, seeking out persons with first hand knowledge of the development of the processes, as well as analysis of extant copies from the various processes. Finally a series of preliminary experiments into the aging properties of the papers and the possibilities of preservation through the use of protective materials were carried out.

Abstract:
Avec le vieillissement général de la population et ses implications sur la pérennité des finances publiques, le marché du travail des seniors est un thème qui va continuer à préoccuper nos sociétés. L’objectif de cette thèse est de répondre à des problématiques concrètes relatives au marché du travail des personnes âgées. Cette thèse comprend quatre chapitres. Les deux premiers chapitres s’intéressent à l’évolution des trajectoires salariales en fin de carrière professionnelle. Les résultats ne supportent pas l’idée que les salaires décroissent pour les travailleurs âgés à cause de l’âge. La diminution du salaire observée pour les travailleurs âgés en coupe transversale est le résultat d’effet de cohorte, de changement d’emploi, ou de la retraite partielle. Le Chapitre 3 évalue les effets des réformes du régime des retraites sur les transitions du chômage à l’emploi. Les réformes du régime des retraites ont des effets limités sur le retour en emploi des chômeurs, mais elles sont accompagnées par une augmentation des sorties vers l’inactivité, entraînant ainsi une baisse du taux de chômage des travailleurs âgés. Enfin, le Chapitre 4 examine les principaux facteurs des difficultés des seniors à se maintenir en emploi. Il propose également une analyse des opportunités d’emploi des chômeurs âgés. Les résultats montrent que l’état de santé, les incitations économiques et l’âge augmentent la probabilité de quitter son emploi, alors que l’âge diminue les chances de réemploi des travailleurs âgés. Une décomposition à la Oaxaca confirme le rôle déterminant de l’âge dans les différences de durée de chômage entre travailleurs d’âge différent, ce qui est consistent avec des attitudes discriminatoires
With the global ageing of population and the consequences on public finances sustainability, the labour market of older workers remains a key concern for societies.The aim of this dissertation is to address particular issues on the labour market for older workers.This thesis consists of four chapters.The first two chapters examine the age-earnings trajectories late in working life.We do not find support of a decline of earnings at older ages as the consequence of ageing.The decline of the age-earnings profile observed for older workers at cross-sectional analysis is attributable to cohort effects, job-changing, and partial retirement.Chapter 3 evaluates the effects of French pension reforms on older workers’ transition out of unemployment and into employment. We find that the retirement reforms have limited effects on re-employment, and they increase transitions into inactivity, leading to a decrease of unemployment rate of older workers.Finally,Chapter 4 investigates the factors behind difficulties to remain in employment as workers age. It also evaluates job opportunities of older unemployed workers.The results indicate that the probability of leaving employment increases with economic incentives, ill health and age, while the probability of getting back to employment decreases with age.An Oaxaca decomposition supports the key role of age in the unemployment duration gap between ‘older’ and ‘younger’ workers, which is consistent with age discrimination

In this day, human resource of seafarers is the most concerned issue in Taiwan’s commercial maritime industry. With response to the recovery of global marine market, new-building ships are successively entering the market in recent years, and this increases the demand for seafarers on the present stage. The rising wage for officers in China, Southeast Asian countries like Philippines, Indonesia, etc, and the serious phenomenon of aging seafarers in Taiwan are also the facts that cause the seafarer’s shortage problem to marine corporations. The demands for managerial officers are especially more than supplies. The commercial maritime industry in Taiwan is facing the extremely serious officers’ shortage challenge; it indicates that the industry is badly in need of professional and skilled engineer officers. By means of discussing documents and sorting data, this study researches the demand and supply in Taiwan’s seafarers market, the human resource of seafarers in international market on present stage, the impact of changes in society on human resource managing, the system of examination and training program, etc, to analyze and compare the current situation in Taiwan’s marine market. This paper further applies the Qualitative Research Methods—Interviewing, Ethnography, and Analysis, and the Questionnaire to study the impact of engineer officers’ aging problem on the shipping industry, and provide the suggestions according to it. The findings show that the phenomena of “flag-out” have led to a serious negative effect on the work opportunities for Taiwanese seafarers. The approach to solving the problem of aging engineer officer is to have a nice training and promoting system, a well-constructed welfare and well-paid system, and make seafarers take turns on board and land. These are also crucial factors to attract talented seafarers. Therefore, this study has suggestions on two sides: On the side of government and school, it is recommended to construct an examination and training system that meets the standard of international conventions, shorten the time period of training, and give a tax credit to encourage marine corporations to flag in. On the side of marine corporations, it is recommended to have a well-promoted system, including rising the number of managerial officers and training talented students. Well-paid, well-constructed welfare system, and make seafarers take turns on board and land are also desirable. These can help the marine corporations to continue their know-how and make their business become greater than before.

The population of aging and elderly prisoners inTaiwan has reached 3,656 inmates aged 65 or older in 2009 and has increased 18.5 percent every year since then. Correctional officers face a very demanding job in which the demands and pressures they face every day could lead many to suffer from stress. This study utilized 265 surveys of a representative sample correctional staff from national correctional facility. ANOVA tests, Independent sample ttests, Brown-Forsythe test, Mann-Whitney U tests, the Pearson correlation, coefficient, and regression were all used to analyze the data in a quantitative methodological approach. Findings indicated Corrections Officers were suffered more job stress. Gender, age, marriage and education were statistically significant. Year of service was statistically significantly on anxiety, depression, low dignity and tire. Tenure failed slightly in meeting the statistically significant criteria. Intrinsic factors comprised the top nine most satisfying factors for PRIDE inmate workers, according to job satisfaction factor means. The three highest rated factors were moral values (21.44), activity (21.32), and achievement (21.28). One job stress factor, compensation (13.32), was the most dissatisfying factor. The remaining 16 job pressure factors were neutral (neither satisfying nor dissatisfying). The prison environment is unique due to the confinement of its population and requirement for forced labor. Inmates working in prison industries satisfy their intrinsic needs through their work in much the same way as free world workers. The correctional institution satisfies aging inmate medical needs. Prison medical caring satisfy aging inmate intrinsic needs and some extrinsic needs. Seven recommendations for practice and two recommendations for future research are offered.

Facing the issue of elderly stage: one-fourth of a lifetime, the only way to confront with the challenge from social environment was to hold an attitude of lifelong learning. Neither learning nor education fell only certain stage of lifetime, it did not come to an end with a clear boundary. Each stage of our lives required necessity and possibility of learning, including the elderly learning. The only way to construct an aggressive and happy elderly life was receiving education. In addition, people may gain following experiences from the process of learning: 1. Receiving brand new knowledge to deal with the transformation of life stage and prepare for the new tasks in the office. 2. Cultivating interests and hobbies to enhance our own lives, or acquiring social confirmation through being volunteer social workers. 3. Solving the problems faced in life through practical skills learned, to prevent from declining on mental, physical or social ability. 4. Inspecting our journey of life, to discover the meaning of life. Therefore, participating in workshop or further-education activity could be the theme for planning retirement and elderly life. The government should plan for related curriculum to meet these expected needs. The aging era comes soon obviously, and it impacts on not only daily lives of nationals, but also the developing direction, industrial competence, fiscal structure, social type and educational plans, the government should take it seriously in time. The samples in this research were students in elderly program in Gangshan district, and the results were gained through Kirkpatrick evaluation model: 1. The items with highest scores in reacting dimension were “the information provided by teacher is valuable to me”, “having excellent communication and interaction with teachers”, “The schedule is smooth and steady”, “the teacher is professional in certain field”, “being content on the speech of teachers” and “the staff are friendly and kind.” Most of the comments are related to the performance of lecturing. 2. In learning dimension, “ability for daily lives, mental growth and learning literacy” is higher than “casual interests and entertainment” and “service literacy.” 3. The elderly participating in the program had significant effects on life satisfaction, social adaptation and behavioral dimension compared with non-participants.

Abstract:
This chapter describes the development of a theory-driven and evidence-based digital intervention to facilitate self-care in older adults with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) and, additionally, its contribution to healthy aging and the individual care plan. T2D is highly prevalent in older adults. Difficulties in adopting and maintaining desirable self-care behaviors is associated with lack of glycemic control and subsequent complications, which significantly burden patients, their families, and the health system. The VASelfCare (Virtual Assistant Self-Care) intervention is a software application that provides an interface with a 3D anthropomorphic virtual assistant targeting three key self-care behaviors: medication-taking, physical activity, and a healthy diet. Other VASelfCare elements are intended for nurses providing diabetes consultations, including a web-based back-office with a patient data dashboard, which streamlines integration of care. The application prototype has been co-produced with older adults with T2D, primary care health professionals, and other stakeholders.

Due to modern medicine, the lifespan of the average person is increasing, with a concomitant increase in the need for care. According to the German Federal Statistical Office, DeStatis, there will be a deficit of 260,000 caregivers by 2025, which is not only an issue in Germany, but worldwide. New technologies, including wearable devices, will be crucial to manage this challenge, but there is a huge amount of research and investment required to incorporate wearable assistive devices into the lives of elderly users. It is crucially important that any new devices are fit for purpose, taking into account the specific needs of elderly people. This chapter, therefore, summarises and reviews the current state of wearable assistive devices, formalises the current design practice with respect to user needs, and presents design considerations such as wearability and usability, in order to assist in the future development of wearable assistive devices for the aging population.

Abstract:
This chapter describes the growth and consolidation of the Chambers law firm in the first half of the 1970s. As the firm hired new lawyers, it maintained a roughly equal balance of white and black attorneys. Growth gave rise to certain tensions, including those between the all-female staff and the firm’s all-male lawyers as a consequence of the firm's inattention to the issue of gender equity. The firm suffered some financial pressure, the result of diminished reimbursements from the LDF, waning fees as Title VII litigation wound down, and Chambers's continuing reluctance to prioritize financial gain over the firm's core mission of service to the African American community. Racial violence rocked the firm when, in February of 1971, an arsonist largely destroyed the firm's offices. No arrests are made. After the firm relocated to temporary quarters in an aging Charlotte motel, Chambers, several of his partners, black physicians, and other black professionals collaborated to build finance and build East Independence Plaza, a multi-story office building that opened in March of 1973, the first building of its type in North Carolina owned and operated by African Americans.

Using 3D printing technology in learning institutions brings an industrial experience to learners as well as an exposure to the same cutting-edge technologies encountered in real life careers. The chapter explores 3D printing technology at kindergarten (preschool), in the lecture room (BEng programme), and ready-to-use 3D printed products. In educational toy applications, the effect of poor product designs that do not meet the children's dimensional and safety requirements can lead to injuries, development of musculoskeletal disorders and health problems, some of which may be experienced by the children when they grow up. In order to address the problem of poor design, measurements of anthropometric dimensions from male and female children, aging from 6 to 7 years old were taken and concepts for educational toys were then generated. Other practical applications of the 3D printing technology explored in the chapter are lecture room demonstrations, prototyping of design projects and a web-based mass-customization of office mini-storage products.

Abstract:
To assist owners and operators in real-time on-site monitoring and damage assessment of aging structures, we propose an “aging structure monitoring system” using direct measurements and web-based transmission technology. Such a system from field detection of surface or subsurface cracks to computer modeling/analysis/verification of simulated fatigue crack growth with ultimate delivery of remaining life prediction, is designed to have four major components: (1) The system is capable of transmitting from the field via internet to the office computer direct measurement data that are being collected in the field by personnel using handheld optical scanners to read bar-code-like strain gages either laser bonded (permanent marking) or adhesively bonded to selected critical high stress areas of the surface of a structure. (2) The office computer has a customized database that stores not only relevant geometric and material property data with variability information, but also a history of prior loadings, cumulated strain (plastic) measurements and fatigue crack length or crack tip opening displacement measurements. Such database is constantly being updated and enhanced with variability estimates subsequent to an event on a continouus or periodic inspection basis. (3) Using a minimum of four commercially-available finite-element method (FEM) packages, e.g., ABAQUS, ANSYS, LS-DYNA, and MPAVE, a numerical simulation experiment is conducted on real time using a fracture mechanics and fatigue damage theory-based deterministic model and the direct measurement data. This model is capable of predicting remaining lives for selected future loading scenarios. (4) The results of the FEM simulations are verified via a web-based statistically designed experiment using DATAPLOT where an uncertainty-bounded estimate of the remaining lives of the structure for selected loadings is delivered in real time to the field for decision making. Significance and limitations of this web-based direct-measurement approach to fatigue modeling are discussed.

Abstract:
As part of the Light Water Reactor and Sustainability (LWRS) program in the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Nuclear Energy, material aging and degradation research is currently geared to support the long-term operation of existing nuclear power plants (NPPs) as they move beyond their initial 40 year licenses. The goal of this research is to provide information so that NPPs can develop aging management programs (AMPs) to address replacement and monitoring needs as they look to operate for 20 years, and in some cases 40 years, beyond their initial, licensed operating lifetimes. For cable insulation and jacket materials that support instrument, control, and safety systems, accelerated aging data are needed to determine priorities in cable aging management programs. Before accelerated thermal and radiation aging of harvested, representative cable insulation and jacket materials, the benchmark performance of a new test capability at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) was evaluated for temperatures between 70 and 135°C, dose rates between 100 and 500 Gy/h, and accumulated doses up to 200 kGy. Samples that were characterized and are representative of current materials in use were harvested from the Callaway NPP near Fulton, Missouri, and the San Onofre NPP north of San Diego, California. From the Callaway NPP, a multiconductor control rod cable manufactured by Boston Insulated Wire (BIW), with a Hypalon/ chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSPE) jacket and ethylene-propylene rubber (EPR) insulation, was harvested from the auxiliary space during a planned outage in 2013. This cable was placed into service when the plant was started in 1984. From the San Onofre NPP, a Rockbestos Firewall III (FRIII) cable with a Hypalon/ CSPE jacket with cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation was harvested from an on-site, climate-controlled storage area. This conductor, which was never placed into service, was procured around 2007 in anticipation of future operation that did not occur. Benchmark aging for both jacket and insulation material was carried out in air at a temperature of 125°C or in a uniform 140 Gy/h gamma field over a period of 60 days. Their mechanical properties over the course of their exposures were compared with reference data from comparable cable jacket/insulation compositions and aging conditions. For both accelerated thermal and radiation aging, it was observed that the mechanical properties for the Callaway BIW control rod cable were consistent with those previously measured. However, for the San Onofre Rockbestos FRIII, there was an observable functional difference for accelerated thermal aging at 125°C. Details on possible sources for this difference and plans for resolving each source are given in this paper.

Abstract:
Nuclear power plants contain hundreds of kilometers of electrical cables including cables used for power, for instrumentation, and for control. It is essential that safety-related cable systems continue to perform following a design-basis event. Wholesale replacement of electrical cables in existing plants facing licensing period renewal may be both impractical and cost-prohibitive. It is therefore important to understand the long term aging of cable materials to have confidence that aged cables will perform when needed. It is equally important in support of cable aging management to develop methods to evaluate the health of installed cables and inform selective cable replacement decisions. The most common insulation materials for electrical cables in nuclear power plants are cross-linked polyethylene and ethylene-propylene rubber. The mechanical properties of these materials degrade over time in the presence of environmental stresses including heat, gamma irradiation, and moisture. Mechanical degradation of cable insulation beyond a certain threshold is unacceptable because it can lead to insulation cracking, exposure of energized conductors, arcing and burning or loss of the ability of the cable system to function during a design-basis accident. While thermal-, radiation-, and moisture-related degradation of polymer insulation materials has been extensively studied over the last few decades, questions remain regarding the long term performance of cable materials in nuclear plant-specific environments. Identified knowledge gaps include an understanding of the temperature-dependence of activation energies for thermal damage and an understanding of the synergistic effects of radiation and thermal stress on polymer degradation. Many of the outstanding questions in the aging behavior of cable materials relate to the necessity of predicting long-term field degradation using accelerated aging results from the laboratory. Materials degrade faster under more extreme conditions, but extension of behavior to long term degradation under more mild conditions, such as those experienced by most installed cables in nuclear power plants, is complicated by the fact that different degradation mechanisms may be involved in extreme and mild scenarios. The discrepancy in predicted results from short term, more extreme exposure and actual results from longer term, more mild exposures can be counter intuitive. For instance, due to the attenuation of oxidation penetration in material samples rapidly aged through exposure to high temperatures, the bulk of the samples may be artificially protected from thermal aging. In another example, simultaneous exposure of cable insulation material to heat and radiation may actually lead to less damage at higher temperatures than may be observed at lower temperatures. The Light Water Reactor Sustainability program of the United States (US) Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Nuclear Energy is funding research to increase the predictive understanding of electrical cable material aging and degradation in existing nuclear power plants in support of continued safe operation of plants beyond their initial license periods. This research includes the evaluation and development of methods to assess installed cable condition.

Abstract:
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Packaging Certification Program (PCP), Office of Packaging and Transportation, Office of Environmental Management, has sponsored a suite of training courses that are conducted annually by Argonne National Laboratory (Argonne) in support of safety and security of nuclear and other radioactive material packages. One of these courses conducted by Argonne since 2000 is the Application of the ASME Code to Radioactive Material Transportation Packaging, which was expanded significantly in 2014 to include dry storage casks, resulting in a change in course title to the Application of the ASME Code to Radioactive Material Packaging/Cask. The purpose of the course is to provide guidance for the application of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel (BPV) Code (“ASME Code”) to transportation packaging and storage cask of radioactive materials, including used (or spent) nuclear fuel and high-level waste, and to facilitate the design, fabrication, examination, and testing of packagings and casks. Both regulatory requirements in 10 CFR Parts 71 and 72 and the ASME Code requirements for transportation and storage containments are addressed, with emphasis on the Code Section III, Division 3, “Containments for Transportation and Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel and High Level Radioactive Material and Waste.” Among the specific topics covered are the application of the ASME Code requirements to structural materials, containments, loading and design; the design of containment internal support structures and buckling analysis; fabrication, welding, examination, and test requirements; quality assurance; physical testing, structural and thermal modeling and analysis considerations; and containment, shielding, and criticality analysis considerations. Special topics covered include non-Code materials, hydrogen gas generation, and aging management for extended long-term storage of used fuel and subsequent transportation. The expanded training course was offered in June 2014 at Argonne with 27 participants representing mainly industry and government agencies. On the basis of the feedback and course evaluation by the participants, the course may be expanded from 3 to 4.5 days in the future to allow more time for in-class discussion and exercises, as well as to include additional topics related to aging management for extended long-term storage of used fuel and its post-storage transportation. The course provides insight into the DOE and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) transportation and storage cask certification processes. The target audience is DOE, DOE contractors, other agency personnel, and commercial transportation packaging and storage cask engineering employees. Those responsible for designing, fabricating, testing, or packaging and casks, as well as preparing or reviewing the associated Safety Analysis Reports, will also benefit from the course.

Abstract:
A temperature-monitoring system based on radiofrequency identification (RFID) has been developed for extending the maintenance period of the nuclear material packaging for storage and transportation. The system consists of tags, readers, and application software. The tag, equipped with a temperature sensor, is attached to the exterior of a package. The application software enables remote reading, via radio waves, of the temperature from the sensor in the tag. The system reports any temperature violations immediately via e-mail or text message, and/or posts the alarm on a secure website. The system can monitor thousands of packages and record individual temperature histories in a database. The first type of packaging that will benefit from the RFID technology is Model 9977, which has been certified by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to ship and store fissile materials such as plutonium and uranium. The recorded data can be correlated to the temperature of the containment O-ring seals, based on the decay heat load of the contents. Accelerated aging studies of the Viton® GLT O-rings have shown that temperature is one of the key parameters governing the life of the O-ring seals, which maintain the integrity of the containment boundary of the package. Use of the RFID temperature-monitoring system to verify that the surface temperature remains below a certain threshold will make it possible to extend the leak-test period of the package from one year to up to five years. The longer leak-rate testing interval will yield a cost savings of up to $10,000 per package over five years. This work was conducted by Argonne National Laboratory in support of the DOE Packaging Certification Program, Office of Environmental Management, Office of Packaging and Transportation (EM-63).

Abstract:
License renewal of operating nuclear power plants in the United States has become one of the most successful nuclear industry activities in the past few years. Entergy, the second largest nuclear plant operator in the U.S., was one of the pioneers in this new process. In 2000, Entergy submitted a license renewal application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 1. By June 2001, less than 17 months later, the NRC issued a renewed license. Due in part to the efficiency and success of this first Entergy license renewal project, a dedicated team of Entergy and Areva (formerly known as Framatome-ANP) personnel was established using virtual office concepts to work on license renewal for the remaining nine Entergy nuclear units over the next decade. Since each license renewal project takes 4 to 5 years and costs $10 to $15 million to complete [1], the dedicated team has focused on improving the schedule and economics of the license renewal process. By early 2004, the dedicated team has worked on five license renewal projects and expects to begin work on at least two additional projects by 2005. The virtual team organization has established standardized processes for managing data and for performing aging management reviews, environmental reviews, and time limited aging analyses evaluations. In addition, the team has worked with the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) and the NRC to further improve the efficiency of the license renewal process. This paper discusses the standardized processes established, the virtual team techniques used to manage multiple license renewal projects, and the plans for further process improvements. The ultimate goal of Entergy’s license renewal work is to achieve a highly efficient and effective license renewal process that ensures the safe continued operation of its fleet of nuclear power plants for decades to come.

Abstract:
This paper describes a gas transmission pipeline company with dissimilar local control and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems that had formed over time, and the solution that was put into place to consolidate those systems. Great Lakes Gas Transmission Company (GLGT) had historically operated the pipeline from four geographically different locations with a combination of various local man-machine interface (MMI) control systems and an aging SCADA system. As new control systems were installed at compressor and meter stations, local and corporate data acquisition needs changed. It became apparent that the existing SCADA system which telemetered a minimal set of control data could no longer support growth requirements. The decision was made to replace the old SCADA system with a new “open” state of the art architecture. As a result of competitive bidding, the Valmet OASyS (Open Architecture SyStem) was selected and installed at multiple locations along the pipeline. Each system was connected with a Wide-Area-Network (WAN) and an application which enabled information to be shared among the locations. Operators may view information from any location along the pipeline, and may remotely control devices from authorized locations. In addition, the corporate office in Detroit, Michigan was given the capability to view information from the entire pipeline for administrative and planning purposes. The system installed at Detroit now functions as a gateway for information exchanged between GLGT’s parent companies.

Abstract:
Over the last thirty years, much research has been done on the development and application of failure event databases, NDE databases, and material property databases for pressure vessels and piping, as reported in two recent symposia: (1) ASME 2007 PVP Symposium (in honor of the late Dr. Spencer Bush), San Antonio, Texas, on “Engineering Safety, Applied Mechanics, and Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE).” (2) ASME 2008 PVP Symposium, Chicago, Illinois, on “Failure Prevention via Robust Design and Continuous NDE Monitoring.” The two symposia concluded that those three types of databases, if properly documented and maintained on a worldwide basis, could hold the key to the continued safe and reliable operation of numerous aging nuclear power or petrochemical processing plants. During the 2008 symposium, four uncertainty categories associated with causing uncertainty in fatigue life estimates were identified, namely, (1) Uncertainty-1 in failure event databases, (2) Uncertainty-2 in NDE databases, (3) Uncertainty-3 in material property databases, and (4) Uncertainty-M in crack-growth and damage modeling. In this paper, which is one of a series of four to address all those four uncertainty categories, we address Uncertainty-2 in NDE databases by developing a Web-based Uncertainty Plug-In (WUPI), which automates the uncertainty estimation algorithms of flaw sizing, fracture toughness, and crack growth vs. ΔK data such that NDE data from the field can be acted on by office engineers with a reduced feedback time for maintenance decision making.
