Abstract
This paper examines research covering applications of Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and the field of nuclear energy in the U.S. to gain a better understanding of how to better posture the industry for expansion while maintaining a high margin of safety. It provides an analysis of current research to identify the benefits and drawbacks of implementing MBSE, how the U.S. can benefit from MBSE methodologies in nuclear energy, and the overall impacts of implementing MBSE in American nuclear energy operations and development. This paper seeks to highlight how the benefits of utilizing MBSE in nuclear energy operations outweigh the negative outcomes of doing so.
期刊介绍：
Nuclear Engineering and Design covers the wide range of disciplines involved in the engineering, design, safety and construction of nuclear fission reactors. The Editors welcome papers both on applied and innovative aspects and developments in nuclear science and technology.
Fundamentals of Reactor Design include:
• Thermal-Hydraulics and Core Physics
• Safety Analysis, Risk Assessment (PSA)
• Structural and Mechanical Engineering
• Materials Science
• Fuel Behavior and Design
• Structural Plant Design
• Engineering of Reactor Components
• Experiments
Aspects beyond fundamentals of Reactor Design covered:
• Accident Mitigation Measures
• Reactor Control Systems
• Licensing Issues
• Safeguard Engineering
• Economy of Plants
• Reprocessing / Waste Disposal
• Applications of Nuclear Energy
• Maintenance
• Decommissioning
Papers on new reactor ideas and developments (Generation IV reactors) such as inherently safe modular HTRs, High Performance LWRs/HWRs and LMFBs/GFR will be considered; Actinide Burners, Accelerator Driven Systems, Energy Amplifiers and other special designs of power and research reactors and their applications are also encouraged.
