This fully updated introductory textbook provides students and practitioners with the fundamentals of nuclear principles in engineering for a thorough understanding of physical processes relating to neutron physics, nuclear structures, and radiation interactions. To comprehend physical phenomena, hands-on computational exercises supported by mathematical details and real-life examples are provided to communicate the nuclear principles concepts. A new chapter details the evolution of nuclear power plants, explaining the modern-day technologies based on design details linked to the basic principles of nuclear engineering. In addition, every chapter is supplied with the problems solutions and answers. Nuclear Principles in Engineering, Third Edition, is written for students, engineers, physicists, and scientists who need up-to-date information on basic nuclear concepts and calculation methods, and will serve as an invaluable resource for training programs in the nuclear sector. Offers an extensive introduction to nuclear engineering with numerous applications; Provides graphical interpretations of abstract phenomena and equations; Includes extensive problem sets with solutions to selected problems. . 0aElectric power production.965675 0aNuclear engineering.967797 0aNuclear physics. 0aMechanical engineering.958323 0aNuclear medicine.14aElectrical Power Engineering.96586724aMechanical Power Engineering.96567824aNuclear Energy.96780024aNuclear Physics.24aMechanical Engineering.95832324aNuclear Medicine.1 aRehman, Haseeb ur.eauthor.4aut4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut9892442 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303171941708iPrinted edition:z978303171943108iPrinted edition:z978303171944840uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-71942-4  aZDB-2-ENE  aZDB-2-SXEN  c65879d65879
