  2. 1. Accident-tolerant uranium nitride

    Author : Aneta Herman; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; accident-tolerant fuel; uranium nitride; chromium; glucose; internal sol-gel;

    Abstract : After the nuclear accident at Fukushima-Daiichi in 2011, a search for alternatives to a current fuel-clad standard UO2-Zircaloy was encouraged by government and industry and novel fuel-clad systems were selected. These systems are often referred to as Accident Tolerant systems, because of an improved response to severe accidents. READ MORE

  4. 2. Carbon Nitride : Characterization and Protein Interactions

    Author : Torun Berlind; Hans Arwin; Pentti Tengvall; Hans Hultman; Thomas E. Tiwald; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns synthesis and characterization of carbon-based materials and theinvestigation of the possible use, of a selection of these materials, in biomedicalapplications. Protein adsorption and blood plasma tests were used for this purposeutilizing a surface sensitive technique called spectroscopic ellipsometry. READ MORE

  5. 3. Advances in Accident Tolerant Fuel Research by Doping of Uranium Nitride

    Author : Luis Guillermo Gonzalez Fonseca; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Uranium nitride; sintering; internal gelation; doping; ATF; microspheres; density; waterproofing.;

    Abstract : Nuclear energy is a carbon-free energy source alternative often considered less harmful to the environment than fossil fuels. However, accidents have shown that there are some safety concerns regarding nuclear energy that need to be assessed before it can be considered completely safe. READ MORE

  6. 4. Fabrication and Testing of Doped Uranium Nitride as an Accident Tolerant Fuel Alternative

    Author : Luis Guillermo Gonzalez Fonseca; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; internal gelation; density; Uranium nitride; sintering; microspheres; doping; waterproofing.; ATF;

    Abstract : Nuclear energy is a carbon-free energy source often considered less harmful to the environment than fossil fuels. However, accidents have shown that there are some safety concerns regarding nuclear energy that need to be continuously assessed and further improved. READ MORE

  7. 5. Nitride Thin Films for Thermoelectric Applications : Synthesis, Characterization and Theoretical Predictions

    Abstract : Thermoelectrics is the reversible process which transforms a temperature gradient across a material into an external voltage through a phenomenon known as the Seebeck effect. This has resulted in niche applications such as solid-state cooling for electronic and optoelectronic devices which exclude the need for a coolant or any moving parts and long-lasting, maintenance-free radioisotope thermoelectric generators used for deep-space exploration.
