The use of MATLAB® in clinical Medical Physics is continuously increasing, thanks to new technologies and developments in the field. However, there is a lack of practical guidance for students, researchers, and medical professionals on how to incorporate it into their work. Focusing on the areas of diagnostic Nuclear Medicine and Radiation Oncology Imaging, this book provides a comprehensiv…
This book consist of Introduction; The history of energy; Energy reserves and renewable energy sources; Emerging fuel technologies and policies impacting these technologies; History of conversion of thermal energy to work; Transportation; Production o electricity; Energy in heating, Ventilation, and air conditioning; Electrical power as sustainable energy; Atomic processes; Recycling and waste …
Despite all the efforts being put into expanding renewable energy sources, large-scale power stations will be essential as part of a reliable energy supply strategy for a longer period. Given that they are low on CO2 emissions, many countries are moving into or expanding nuclear energy to cover their baseload supply.
Offering a comprehensive assessment of the dynamics driving - and constraining - nuclear power development in Asia, Europe and North America, this book provides a detailed comparative analysis of contemporary issues in the field.
Proceedings contains material: Seminar environment for nuclear safety analysis; Outline of safety examination; Basis LWR radiological evaluation in Japan; Calculation of doses during routine release from LWRs – Model description; Calculation of doses during routine release from LWRs – Model Application of ANDOSE-JINS.

This title is the first of four 'new-look' books in the Power and Energy series that are aimed at industry professionals rather than academics. Nuclear Power explains in detail how nuclear power works, its costs, its benefits as part of the electricity supply system, and also examines its record. This book covers the debate over the pros and cons of nuclear power. Is it expensive, dangerous …
This report provides information on the content and format for decommissioning plans and supporting safety related documents. Its scope includes information that is relevant to all types of nuclear facilities, ranging from nuclear power plants and reprocessing facilities to university laboratories and manufacturing plants. The report will be of interest to decommissioning planning engineers, pr…
Higher education plays an essential role in nuclear security capacity building. It ensures the availability of experts able to provide the necessary competencies for effective national nuclear security oversight of nuclear and other radioactive material and to establish and maintain an appropriate nuclear regime in a State. This publication presents both the theoretical knowledge and the practi…
Proceedings contains 18 papers material with speakers from Indonesia (BATAN and HIMNI); Thailand (Ministry of Energy and Chulalongkorn University); Japan (Tokyo Institute of Technology, Pacific Consultants International, JAEA, Toshiba, JAPC, MHI, Kyoto University, CRIEPI, Hitachi, NFT, TEPCO); Canada (University of Toronto); and Vietnam (VAST).

The revised Safety Code and its corresponding Safety Guides replace Safety Series No. 50-C-QA (Rev. 1), Code on the Safety of Nuclear Power Plants: Quality Assurance, and Safety Series Nos 50-SG-QA1 to 50-SG-QA11, and present new simplified basic requirements and implementation methods for quality assurance in a nuclear context. They provide recommendations to regulatory bodies in establishing …
