... requirements approach to life cycle costing (LCC). The LCC includes the main corrosion cost categories and a reliability factor used in assessing power generation costs, the costing of chemical species for controlling corrosion, and the present worth of revenue requirements. The method and model, therefore...

...) systems that are used in nuclear plants. This paper describes an FPGA-based lab-scale implementation of a postaccident monitoring system (PAMS), for a Westinghouse AP1000 reactor. This system will monitor vital parameters in the event of a serious reactor accident. The system reliability was analyzed...
