Concrete-known for its inert properties-plays a pivotal role in nuclear and radioactive waste
storage, providing a robust barrier against radiation. Blended concrete made up of …

Nuclear energy offers a wide range of applications, which include power generation, X-ray
imaging, and non-destructive tests, in many economic sectors. However, such applications …

This research examines the properties of ultra-high-performance (UHPC) and heavyweight
radiation shielding concrete (UHPHSC). Several types of heavy-weight fine aggregates …

A Windows-based application software called EpiXS (available at https://www. pnri. dost.

The current study assessed two concrete mixes prepared using dolomite and barite/limonite
aggregates to shield against both energetic photons and neutrons. After that, a designed mix …

To benefit of humankind, radiation is used in medicine, industry, and academics, as well as
for generating electricity. Neutron radiation is a kind of ionisation emission that releases free …

For the first time, the hazardous chrysotile was valorized as an aggregate in radiation
shielding concrete (RSC). This was accomplished through its amalgamation with two …

This paper explores the characteristics of ultra-high-performance heavyweight radiation
shielding concrete by using many types of radiation-resistant aggregates. The experimental …

Heavy weight concrete (HWC) is one of the most used artificial materials for the embodiment
of special infrastructures such as nuclear power, medical, nuclear science and industrial …
