Nuclear Reactor Physics and Engineering highlights efforts in utilizing low enrichment uranium fuel as a substitute for carbon-based fuels in energy generation and provides an overview of important aspects of nuclear reactor physics utilizing the neutron diffusion equation for major reactor designs and MATLAB software for system analysis, with exercises illustrating key points and design parameters as supplementary material.   This revised and updated Second Edition reflects key findings of the 2023 National Academy of Sciences (NAS) report and discusses physical and engineering characteristics of advanced nuclear reactors, especially in the form of small modular reactors that have the potential to provide enhanced safety and economics, as well as effective long-term management of used nuclear fuel in geological repositories.   Key topics explored in the updated edition of Nuclear Reactor Physics and Engineering include:     Impact of the use of high-assay low enrichment uranium (HALEU) fuel as a new efficient nuclear fuel Advantages resulting from combined uses of light water reactor and sodium-cooled fast reactor with fuel reprocessing Fundamental nuclear reactor physics, nuclear reactor system analysis, and lattice physics analysis for reactor cores  Nuclear fuel cycle analysis, nuclear plant simulation and control, and management of used nuclear fuel Economic analysis of nuclear electricity and thermal-hydraulic analysis of nuclear systems.   With a wealth of all-new information detailing the state of the art in the field, Nuclear Reactor Physics and Engineering is an invaluable reference on the subject for undergraduate and graduate students in nuclear engineering, as well as practicing engineers involved with nuclear power plants.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51024326131985,"sku":"NIN9781394283552","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52683006705937,"sku":"NLS9781394283552","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1394283555.jpg?v=1751370057"},{"product_id":"novice-wild-turkey-hunting-in-south-carolina-book-john-c-lee-9781419680694","title":"Novice Wild Turkey Hunting In South Carolina","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51112998338833,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51112998568209,"sku":"NIN9781419680694","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1419680692.jpg?v=1751019225"},{"product_id":"risk-and-safety-analysis-of-nuclear-systems-book-john-c-lee-9780470907566","title":"Risk and Safety Analysis of Nuclear Systems","description":"The book has been developed in conjunction with NERS 462, a course offered every year to seniors and graduate students in the University of Michigan NERS program. The first half of the book covers the principles of risk analysis, the techniques used to develop and update a reliability data base, the reliability of multi-component systems, Markov methods used to analyze the unavailability of systems with repairs, fault trees and event trees used in probabilistic risk assessments (PRAs), and failure modes of systems. All of this material is general enough that it could be used in non-nuclear applications, although there is an emphasis placed on the analysis of nuclear systems.   The second half of the book covers the safety analysis of nuclear energy systems, an analysis of major accidents and incidents that occurred in commercial nuclear plants, applications of PRA techniques to the safety analysis of nuclear power plants (focusing on a major PRA study for five nuclear power plants), practical PRA examples, and emerging techniques in the structure of dynamic event trees and fault trees that can provide a more realistic representation of complex sequences of events. The book concludes with a discussion on passive safety features of advanced nuclear energy systems under development and approaches taken for risk-informed regulations for nuclear plants.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51162063175953,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51162067566865,"sku":"NIN9780470907566","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0470907568.jpg?v=1751039442"},{"product_id":"business-and-financial-statistics-using-minitab-12-and-microsoft-excel-97-book-john-c-lee-9789810238797","title":"Business And Financial Statistics Using Minitab 12 And Microsoft Excel 97","description":"The personal computer has made statistical analysis easier and cheaper. Previously, statistical analysis was difficult for many reasons. Two of the reasons were: (1) statistical analysis was slow and tedious because calculations were done by hand; (2) it was costly because it was done on mainframes and mainframe time was expensive.This book discusses statistical analysis using two personal computer software packages, Minitab 12 and Microsoft Excel 97. Minitab was chosen because it is powerful and is one of the more user-friendly statistical software packages. Microsoft Excel 97 was selected because it is one of the most important software packages to learn and most companies use Microsoft Excel. Excel is a software package that is not dedicated to statistical analysis like Minitab, but it has many statistical features and a very powerful development environment for writing customized statistical analysis.The book is organized in a textbook format. Each chapter discusses statistical concepts and illustrates the use of Minitab and\/or Excel. Often it becomes necessary to write macros (programs) in order to do specific statistical analysis. This books prints the codes of the macros for the reader to use and study. This is valuable because usually the difficult part is how to write the code.What the reader will find after studying this book is that statistical analysis will become more fun because he will have more time doing statistical analysis and make less statistical calculations.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52617651716369,"sku":"NLS9789810238797","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9789810238797.jpg?v=1761530936"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-john-c-lee.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
