A mechanistic simulation of molten core-material relocation is required to reasonably assess consequences of postulated core disruptive accidents (CDAs) in fast reactors (FRs). The dynamics of molten core-material freezing when it is driven into the channels surrounding the core region plays an important role since th…

A study of the properties of a liquid crystal (LC) lens with a stacked structure of two LC layers is reported. The lens power is approximately twofold larger than that of the LC lens with a single LC layer. The lens exhibits a good ability for focusing incident light beam, and its RMS wavefront error remains small ove…

Annular fuel is very beneficial for fast reactors because of its availability for both high power and high burnup. Most of the annular pellets irradiated up to high burnup showed central-hole shrinkage due to deformation and restructuring during irradiation. This shrinkage has a great influence on power-to-melt, which…

Measurements of ordinary refractive index, birefringence, density, and order parameter were made on a technologically important nematogen and the data obtained for its nematic and isotropic phase were reported. A modified wedge method was used for the measurement of the birefringence (n). The nematic-isotropic phase t…

The translational motion of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) dispersed in a nematic liquid crystal (NLC) has been observed in the fabricated CNT-doped homogeneously aligned NLC cells by applying in-plane electric field. The long axis of CNTs was aligned along the LC director in the initial state. However, the CNTs above a crit…

Abstract Agarose sols have been seen for long as solutions of flexible chains that, on cooling, produce thermoreversible gels through double‐helix formation. Investigations of the chain conformation in the sol state by small‐angle neutron scattering reveals instead a rigid chain with a very large persistence length (…
