Properties of Diamond-Based Neutron Detectors Operated in Harsh Environments

M. Angelone, C. Verona · 28 Oct 2021

Diamond is widely studied and used for the detection of direct and indirect ionizing particles because of its many physical and electrical outstanding properties, which make this material very attractive as a fast-response, high-radiation-hardness and low-noise radiation detector. Diamond detectors are suited for detecting almost all types of ionizing radiation (e.g., neutrons, ions, UV, and…

Advancements in Designing the DEMO Driver Blanket System at the EU DEMO Pre-Conceptual Design Phase: Overview, Challenges and Opportunities

Francisco A. Hernández, P. Arena, L.V. Boccaccini et al. · 3 Aug 2023

The EU conducted the pre-conceptual design (PCD) phase of the demonstration reactor (DEMO) during 2014–2020 under the framework of the EUROfusion consortium. The current strategy of DEMO design is to bridge the breeding blanket (BB) technology gaps between ITER and a commercial fusion power plant (FPP) by playing the role of a “Component Test Facility”…

Neural Network Based Deep Learning Method for Multi-Dimensional Neutron Diffusion Problems with Novel Treatment to Boundary

Yuchen Xie, Yahui Wang, Yu Ma et al. · 9 Dec 2021

In this paper, the artificial neural networks (ANN) based deep learning (DL) techniques were developed to solve the neutron diffusion problems for the continuous neutron flux distribution without domain discretization in advance. Due to its mesh-free property, the DL solution can easily be extended to complicated geometries. Two specific realizations of DL methods with different…

SCONE: A Student-Oriented Modifiable Monte Carlo Particle Transport Framework

Mikolaj Kowalski, Paul Cosgrove, Jakob Broman et al. · 8 Mar 2021

Over the last decade, the importance of the Monte Carlo as a neutron transport calculation method has greatly increased. This paper describes a Monte Carlo particle transport framework SCONE, which aims to provide with easy-to-learn environment for graduate students to learn about Monte Carlo methods and explore new ideas. The paper lists the steps taken…

Proximal Policy Optimization for Radiation Source Search

Philippe Proctor, Christof Teuscher, Adam Hecht et al. · 30 Sep 2021

Rapid search and localization for nuclear sources can be an important aspect in preventing human harm from illicit material in dirty bombs or from contamination. In the case of a single mobile radiation detector, there are numerous challenges to overcome such as weak source intensity, multiple sources, background radiation, and the presence of obstructions, i.e.,…

Journal of Nuclear Engineering template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Journal of Nuclear Engineering format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Journal of Nuclear Engineering template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official MDPI format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Journal of Nuclear Engineering use?
Journal of Nuclear Engineering uses Numbered (MDPI) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith, A.; Jones, B.; Lee, C. A Representative Article Title. Journal of Nuclear Engineering 2023, 12, 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Journal of Nuclear Engineering?
No. DocuGuru generates the mdpi LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a MDPI-ready Journal of Nuclear Engineering document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Journal of Nuclear Engineering template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Journal of Nuclear Engineering format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is Journal of Nuclear Engineering?
Journal of Nuclear Engineering (J. Nucl. Eng.) - MDPI Journal. It is a multidisciplinary journal, published by MDPI.
Can I export a submission-ready Journal of Nuclear Engineering PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Journal of Nuclear Engineering template (the mdpi class) that is ready to submit to MDPI, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Journal of Nuclear Engineering template cost?
You can start writing in the Journal of Nuclear Engineering template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Journal of Nuclear Engineering PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
