• The adsorption of fission products on VHTR structural materials 

    Branney, Sean J., 1980- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
    The Very High Temperature Reactor (VHTR) is being considered as a candidate for the next generation of nuclear reactors. There are several areas that require further study in VHTR reactor designs. One such area is the ...
  • Deposition of aerosols in cylindrical tubes and in human lung airways 

    Gutti, Veera Rajesh, 1981- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
    Aerosol transport and deposition is of interest in many industrial and medical applications. This research is focused on two specific topics: deposition of aerosols in cylindrical tubes with emphasis on thermophoresis and ...
  • Measurement of fission product diffusion in VHTR materials 

    Boyle, Thomas R., 1980- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
    Measuring and quantifying the diffusion of fission products in reactor materials is a critical element of the future success of Very High Temperature Reactors (VHTRs). While the extreme temperatures, which may be in excess ...
