In this paper, a SP3 code named STELLA is developed and verified at SNERDI （Shanghai Nuclear Engineering Research and Design Institute）. For SP3 method, neutron transport equation can be transformed into two coupled equations in the same mathematical form as diffusion equation. In this work, SANM （semi-analytic nodal method） is used to solve diffusion-like equation, due to its easy to handle multi-group problem. Whole core nodal boundary net current coupling is used to improve convergence stability in SANM, instead of solving two-node problem. CMFD （coarse-mesh finite difference） acceleration method is employed for 0-th SP3 equation, which represents the neutron balance relationship. Three benchmarks are used to verify the SP3 code, STELLA. The first one is a self-defined one dimensional problem, which demonstrates SP3 method is extremely accurate, due to no academic approximation in one dimensional for SP3. The second one is a two dimensional one-group problem cited from Larsen＇s paper, which is usually used to verify and prove the SP3 code correct and accurate. And the third one is modified from 2D C5G7-MOX benchmark, whose numerical results indicate that STELLA is accurate and efficient in pin size level, compared to diffusion model.展开更多

This new plant has vertically elongate sporangia differing from all known species of Zosterophyllum, demonstrating morphological variations in Zosterophyllophytina. New materials of Zosterophyllum yunnanicum from the Lower Devonian Xujiachong Formation, Qujing District, eastern Yunnan of China show that fertile axes of this species are anisotomous or pseudomonopodial or K-shaped in branching. Sometimes fertile lateral axes are very short and bear an axillary axis at the dividing point. Distinct thickening occurs along the whole margin of a sporangium, with sporangial lobes undeveloped. The evolution of ZosterophyUum is tentatively discussed. A biostratigraphic method of Gerrienne and Streel is introduced and applied to dating of the Lower Devonian Xujiachong Formation, which is considered as of the late Pragian-early Emsian.展开更多

One of the effect is the arise of significant strains in weak soils that induce bending moments on piles. These moments can be significant in presence of a high stiffness contrast in a soil deposit. The single pile kinematic interaction problem is generally solved with beam on dynamic Winkler foundation approaches(BDWF) or using continuous models. In this work, a new boundary element method(BEM)based computer code(KIN SP) is presented where the kinematic analysis is preceded by a free-field response analysis. The analysis results of this method, in terms of bending moments at the pile-head and at the interface of a two-layered soil, are influenced by many factors including the soil-pile interface discretization. A parametric study is presented with the aim to suggest the minimum number of boundary elements to guarantee the accuracy of a BEM solution, for typical pile-soil relative stiffness values as a function of the pile diameter, the location of the interface of a two-layered soil and of the stiffness contrast. KIN SP results have been compared with simplified solutions in literature and with those obtained using a quasi-three-dimensional(3D) finite element code.展开更多
