Nuclear Reactor Safety and Accident Mitigation Management – Volume II

This Research Topic is the second volume in a series. Explore the first volume: Nuclear Reactor Safety and Accident Mitigation Management.Nuclear reactor safety and accident mitigation management have been of significant importance for reactor licensing and regulatory clearance for commissioning. Rigorous protocols, stringent regulations, advanced technologies, and robust experimental and theoretical research underpin safety measures. Continuous research and development help refine safety protocols for reactor design. Robust containment structures and emergency response plans bolster public confidence during emergencies. Lessons from past incidents drive continuous improvements to reactor safety, emphasizing the prevention of accidents and preparedness by way of advanced research and development. The safety of nuclear reactors plays a crucial role in advancing nuclear energy for sustainable development and the benefit of society.This Research Topic explores advances in nuclear reactor safety and accident mitigation, as well as emerging challenges and future directions. Research on advancements in experimental methods and models, as well as on processes and systems of accident progression, radionuclide transport, and deposition, is welcome. Contributions must advance the sound development of safety and risk science and engineering for nuclear engineering applications.Areas within the scope of this collection include, but are not limited to:• Nuclear reactor safety, accident analysis, and mitigation measures• Nuclear and radioactive aerosols in nuclear fuel cycle processes• Theoretical modelling for the safety analysis of nuclear reactors• Safety experiments on radioactive contamination• Radionuclides transport and deposition• Nuclear meltdown and severe accident analysis• Digital twins for modelling in nuclear safety• Nuclear safety systems.
