    About this series

    Global Progress on Molten Salt Reactors: A Companion to Dolan’s Molten Salt Reactors and Thorium Energy, Second Edition presents global perspectives on the latest research and technological advances. Each case study utilizes a comprehensive template that guides the reader through country specific research. Useful data which can be applied to work and research is included, along with a list of references for further research. Researchers, professional engineers and policymakers will gain a broad picture of worldwide MSR activity and a deep understanding of how theory and practical guidance is applied in a variety of settings, including budgets, approaches and constraints.

    • Provides a collection of case studies from 23 countries, presenting their latest research and activities on Molten Salt Reactors
    • Based on chapter 26 of the first edition of Dolan’s Molten Salt Reactors and Thorium Energy, this companion title presents expanded and more complete coverage of global activities and research
    • Includes advanced technologies, reactor designs and safety and management strategies

      Liquid Metal Corrosion: Fundamental Theory and Applications is designed to help scientists, engineers and students working on liquid metal (sodium, lead, lead-bismuth) to fundamentally understand liquid metal corrosion. Coverage includes a discussion of corrosion mechanisms, fundamental corrosion processes, and corrosion products’ behaviors as well as methods on how to calculate corrosion rates. The book concludes with models designed to predict the corrosion/precipitation distribution in a primary corrosion loop. This book will be a useful resource for researchers in their efforts to determine appropriate materials selection and reactor design. Discusses liquid metal corrosion mechanisms Includes models to estimate/calculate corrosion rates Presents liquid metal corrosion controls and mitigation methods

      The Combustion Engine Refuses to Die: Internal combustion is surviving by adapting.

      Nov 21, 2013

      The internal combustion engine is a throwback. It is a holdover from the age of steam. Its details have been refined, its materials improved and its output multiplied, but the basic mechanism—a piston moving up and down in a cylinder bore—was invented before the phonograph or the lightbulb. The product of an era of cheap, abundant energy, the combustion engine is also flagrantly wasteful. In a four-stroke gasoline engine—the engine that is most likely in your car, your motorboat, maybe even your generator—a piston is first driven downward, sucking air into the cylinder. Next, the piston makes
