Outcomes of the FALCON code analysis-related part of the STARS-ENSI Service Project on Evaluation of the new U.S.NRC RIA Fuel Safety Criteria and Application to the Swiss Reactors are presented. Substantial conservatism of the updated safety limits for high-temperature and PCMI cladding failure, as proposed in the NRC Regulatory Guide RG 1.236, is confirmed. Applicability of the updated failure limits to fuel safety analysis in the Swiss PWRs, as applied to standard fuel designs using UO2 fuel pellets and SRA Zry-4 as cladding materials is discussed. Conducting of new integral RIA tests with irradiated samples using doped- and gadolinia fuel pellets to support appropriate fuel safety criteria for RIA events is recommended.

Lempel-Ziv coding is one of the most famous source coding schemes. The output of this source coding is usually a non-uniform code, which requires additional source coding, such as arithmetic coding, to reduce a redundancy. However, this additional source code increases complexity and decoding latency. Thus, this paper proposes the optimal maximum a-posteriori (MAP) receiver for non-uniform source non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) with symmetric superposition coding (SSC). First, we derive an analytical expression of the bit-error rate (BER) for non-uniform source NOMA with SSC. Then, Monte Carlo simulations demonstrate that the BER of the optimal MAP receiver for the non-uniform source improves slightly, compared to that of the conventional receiver for the uniform source. Moreover, we also show that the BER of an approximate analytical expression is in a good agreement with the BER of Monte Carlo simulation. As a result, the proposed optimal MAP receiver for non-uniform source could be a promising scheme for NOMA with SSC, to reduce complexity and decoding latency due to additional source coding.

The Pusan clays are soft and thick deposits and in some places, they reach even up to 50-70m. So, the pile foundations are inevitable in almost all cases. But they are significantly expansive when the length of the pile reaches about 70m. In this study, a comprehensive parametric study has been carried out in order to reduce the pile length and number of piles required in turn the cost of the foundation for particular building. A belled shaft pile has been optimized for a typical soil profile using the PLAXIS (FEM code). These results have shown a new direction of the pile foundation in Pusan, Korea. The results including the variation of contact pressures at the bottom of the bell, optimization of the angle of the bell and height of the bell in terms of the diameter of the shaft. And also, the design curves have been generated so that they can be directly used for design of belled shaft foundations. However, the structural strength criterion is being checked in the concerned laboratory.

It Is necessary to calculate radwaste effluent due to change in the fuel defect rate to see the overall change in radwaste effluent md, at present, for this type of calculation DAMSAM code is being used. However, often, one can not access easily to this code with many reason and so we have chosen this case, in this paper, to show a very simplified but quite accurated calculation method without the solving equations. The physical meanning of the parameters in the equations used in DAMSAM have been reviewed to simplify the equations and the result calculated with this method have been compared with that of DAMSAM.

Frame erasure is one of the most difficult problems in voice over IP (VoIP) networks and is a major source of speech quality degradation. In this paper, a frame erasure concealment algorithm based on nonlinear regression analysis is presented to minimize speech quality deterioration in code-excited linear prediction (CELP) based coders. We applied the proposed scheme to the ITU-T G.729 standard and obtained improved perceptual evaluation of speech quality (PESQ) scores compared to the conventional methods.

The concept of Algebraic-Coded Cryptosystem has been proposed recently but its application has not been developed yet. The primary object of this paper is to implement the Private-Key Algebraic-Coded Cryptosystem by using the primitive binary BCH codes. In the analysis of the cryptosystein, we find out the fact that there may exist other key pairs $S_i\;and\;P_i$ satisfying $G^*=S_{i},G_{s},P_{i}$ where $SG_{s}P$ is the original cryptosystem made by use of the systematic code generation matrix $G_{s}$.

In this paper, a NURBS surface interpolator is proposed which can deal with shapes defined from CAD/CAM programs on a surface basis and can improve contour accuracy. The proposed interpolator is based on newly defined G-codes and includes online tool-path planning suitable for NURBS surface machining. The real-time interpolation algorithm, considering an effective machining method for each machining process and minimum machining time, is executed in an online manner. The proposed interpolator is implemented on a PC-based 3-axis CNC milling system and evaluated through actual machining in terms of machining time and regulation of feedrate and cutting force in comparison with the existing method.

We performed the theoretical calculation of CN Violet radiation using the code SPRADIAN07 to predict the Lee et al.'s experimental measurements and to reinvestigate $C_2$ dissociation rate. CN Violet radiations are calculated under the Boltzmann and non-Boltzmann distribution using two chemical reaction sets: Park-Losev-G\"{o}kcen-Tsang and Park-Losev-G\"{o}kcen-Tsang-Lee models. Our SPRADIAN07 calculations show improvement in prediction of absolute radiation intensity of CN Violet and its decay rate by Park-Losev-G\"{o}kcen-Tsang reaction set with $C_2$ dissociation rate coefficient of $k_f$ = 1.5${\times}$10$^{16}$ exp(-71,600/$T_x$) cm$^3$ mole$^{-1}$ s$^{-1}$.

An ABBN-type 26-group constant set, KAERI-26G, which can be reliably applicable to fast reactor calculations has been generated using the nuclear data of ENDF/B-IV or ENDL-78 and a processing code ETOX-K4. The KAERI-26G set was evaluated by analysing measured integral quantities such as effective multiplication factor, central reaction-rate ratio, and central reactivity coefficient for a variety of critical assemblies. All these calculated quantities were compared with results from other workers using similar-type sets.

The paper deals with the numerical solution of the dynamic problem of masonry structures. Masonry is modelled as a non-linear elastic material with zero tensile strength and infinite compressive strength. Due to the non-linearity of the adopted constitutive equation, the equations of the motion must be integrated directly. In particular, we apply the Newmark or the Hilber-Hughes-Taylor methods implemented in code NOSA to perform the time integration of the system of ordinary differential equations obtained from discretising the structure into finite elements. Moreover, with the aim of evaluating the effectiveness of these two methods, some dynamic problems, whose explicit solutions are known, have been solved numerically. Comparisons between the exact solutions and the corresponding approximate solutions obtained via the Newmark and Hilber-Hughes-Taylor methods show that in the cases under consideration both numerical methods yield satisfactory results.
