FPoliSolutions demonstrates RISE, an RIPB systems engineering tool
The American Nuclear Society’s Risk-informed, Performance-based Principles and Policy Committee (RP3C) has held another presentation in its monthly Community of Practice (CoP) series. Former RP3C chair N. Prasad Kadambi opened the October 3 meeting with brief introductory remarks about the RP3C and the need for new approaches to nuclear design that go beyond conventional and deterministic methods. He then welcomed this month’s speakers: Mike Mankosa, a project engineer at FPoliSolutions, and Cesare Frepoli, the company’s president, who together presented “Introduction to RISE: A Digital Framework for Maintaining a Risk-Informed Safety Case for Current and Next Generation Nuclear Power Plants.”

In this paper, the possibility for determination of the tritiated water activity using Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectrometry was analyzed. The method relies on estimation of hydroxyl radicals resulted from self-radiolytical processes using EPR spectrometers. The mechanisms of inducing of free radical by self radiolysis of tritiated water, the accumulation time of hydroxyl radicals and the corroboration of signals amplitude with the tritiated water concentration have been studied.
