Reconfiguring Process Plans: A New Approach to Minimize Change 181 10.2 Related Work The witnessed evolution of Parts/Products Families has made obvious the need for “Evolvable and Reconfigurable Process Plans”, which are capable of responding efficiently to both su[r]
We suggest that the effects shown above are based on the binding of the CSPs to DNA and RNA. However, other possible mechanisms are the inhibition of transcription and or translation by interaction with proteins involved in this process or an increa[r]
We propose here to implement an optimization methodology of the blankets design with regards to various parameters such as the local spectrum or the mass to be loaded, with the objective of minimizing the final neutron source of the spent assembly while maximizing the transmutation performances of th[r]
Neutron scattering applications often require discriminating the elastic contribution from the inelastic contribution. For this purpose, correlation spectroscopy offers an effective tool with both pulsed and continuous neutron sources as well as several advantages: the analysis of the neutron veloci[r]
the ultra-short laser pulses with the target material is thermally confined, i.e., the thermal diffusion takes place within the irradiated area. Therefore, the femto-second laser pulses create minimal (when compared for example to nominal nanosecond laser pulses[r]
This paper presents the calculation results of neutron energy spectrum, neutron spatial distribution in the reflector using the above-mentioned materials. Besides, neutronic characteristics calculated for silicon doping irradiation holes in the reflector are also presented and the utilization capabi[r]
Present study was conducted to see the effect of different levels (0, 50, 75 and 100 ppm of concentrate) of choline chloride on in vitro fermentation process with rations of different energy content. Two rations were prepared having different energy levels (1.26 Mcal/kg NEL and 1.50 Mcal/kg NEL) and[r]
The paper shows the main results obtained in terms of neutron spectra at fixed distances from the source as well as their neutron fluence rate (total and direct) and ambient dose equivalent rate.
