Abstract We determine absolute reactivities for dissociation at low coordinated Pt sites. Two curved Pt(111) single‐crystal surfaces allow us to probe either straight or highly kinked step edges with molecules impinging at a low impact energy. A model extracts the average reactivity of inner and outer kink atoms, whic…

A miniaturized patch antenna is designed operating in the UHF band inspired by the metamaterial technology. By embedding the I-type metamaterial structures in the air substrate, one patch antenna with patch size of 60mm×60mm can resonate at 804MHz in a numerical study. The electrical patch size is only 0.16λ×0.16λ. Th…

Abstract This study provides an inter-unit common cause failure (CCF) analysis method utilizing the international CCF database. The inter-unit CCF is one of the possible major risks at a site with multiple units. The conventional CCF analysis is based on the CCF database, in which inter-unit CCF events rarely occur in…

Abstract In a core disruptive accident scenario, boron carbide, which is used as control rod material, may melt below the melting temperature of stainless steel due to the eutectic reaction with it. Produced eutectic mixture is assumed to relocate widely in the degraded core, and this behavior plays an important role…

Abstract Understanding the mechanism of fission product (FP) removal by pool scrubbing is essential for improving the prediction accuracy of FP emissions concerning severe accident (SA) in a nuclear power plant. Since FP migrates from a gas-phase to a liquid-phase via a gas-liquid interface, the FP removal efficiency…
