A Dutch-French team just tapped Hyundai to build molten-salt reactors — a design that runs hot at normal pressure instead of risking a meltdown
When Thorizon, a nuclear startup headquartered in The Hague, announced that it had chosen Hyundai Engineering as the ...
In the proverbial shadow of the Naughton Power Plant, a station in Kemmerer, Wyoming, that will stop burning coal at the end of this year, TerraPower is constructing what it calls “the only advanced, ...
Generation IV reactors like the Shidao Bay Nuclear Power Plant high-temperature gas-cooled (HTGR) pebble-bed reactor in Shidao Bay, Shandong Province, which was constructed by Tsinghua University, ...
Fusion energy has the potential to be an effective clean energy source, as its reactions generate incredibly large amounts of energy. Fusion reactors aim to reproduce on Earth what happens in the core ...
Reactor radiation-shielding optimization methods are proposed by combining many-objective evolutionary algorithms with particle-transport calculation software that can optimize the reactor ...
