Assessment of Cfd Codes Used in Nuclear Reactor Safety Simulations
The spectacular growth in computer hardware over the last quarter century and the accompanying advances in software development have resulted in the availability of reliable numerical tools for addressing safety issues in Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs). The first step forward was undertaken in the 1970s with the development of system codes using the two-fluid model approach [1], such as RELAP-5 [2...
متن کاملPatient safety: latent risk factors.
The person-centred analysis and prevention approach has long dominated proposals to improve patient safety in healthcare. In this approach, the focus is on the individual responsible for making an error. An alternative is the systems-centred approach, in which attention is paid to the organizational factors that create precursors for individual errors. This approach assumes that since humans ar...
متن کاملDiscussion : “ Factors of Safety for
A recent paper by Xing and Stern [1] provides additional performance data of interest on Verification of Calculations, but is misleading in some important respects. Five methods, all starting from Richardson Extrapolation, are compared: three are based on variants of my Grid Convergence Index method [2–6], and two are based on the authors’ work: the earlier “CF method” and the latest “FS method...
متن کاملProbiotic safety and risk factors.
Probiotics are defined by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United States as “live microorganisms which, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host.”1 They are considered nutritional supplements and, as such, are classified as Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS). Organisms of the probiotic groups are added to all sorts of foods, particularly yogurts, but...
متن کاملSafety assessment and human factors
This chapter examines the safety assessment of systems that include people. Specifically, the chapter is concerned with the analysis of safety in complex, information systems that characteristically support dynamic processes involving large numbers of hardware, software and human elements interacting in many different ways. The chapter assumes little or no knowledge of either safety assessment ...
