Abstract:For more than 35 years of operation and utilization of the neutron source from the PUSPATI TRIGA Reactor (RTP), the reactor has faced ageing challenged and degradation in several structures, systems and components (SSCs). Several modifications have been made since 2010 to ensure safe operation and sustainability, however, due to recent intensively request from the user to use the neutron source, it has shown degradation behaviour in the reactor SSCs including the biological shielding of the RTP. In this paper,… Show more
