Nuclear Power Plant Design and Analysis Codes: Development,
Validation, and Application presents the latest research on the
most widely used nuclear codes and the wealth of successful
accomplishments which have been achieved over the past decades by
experts in the field. Editors Wang, Li,Allison, and Hohorst and
their team of authors provide readers with a comprehensive
understanding of nuclear code development and how to apply it to
their work and research to make their energy production more
flexible, economical, reliable and safe. Written in an accessible
and practical way, each chapter considers strengths and
limitations, data availability needs, verification and validation
methodologies and quality assurance guidelines to develop thorough
and robust models and simulation tools both inside and outside a
nuclear setting. This book benefits those working in nuclear
reactor physics and thermal-hydraulics, as well as those involved
in nuclear reactor licensing. It also provides early career
researchers with a solid understanding of fundamental knowledge of
mainstream nuclear modelling codes, as well as the more experienced
engineers seeking advanced information on the best solutions to
suit their needs.
You'll Manage is a gritty collection of essays about the life and
business wisdom Chris Allison gathered as entrepreneur and CEO of a
start-up that became a publicly-traded company. His entertaining
prose makes it easy to get wrapped up in the stories and forget
you're getting an education in finance and management. Unlike many
entrepreneurs who offer business advice, Allison doesn't take
himself too seriously. In titles like "Dr. Jekyll and Mr.
Entrepreneur" and "Big Daddy," he uses humor to speak with the
candor of someone who's not afraid to admit he's made mistakes
along the way, and learned from them. You'll find yourself on the
last page of You'll Manage before you know it, wishing for more.
