  • Boundary condition adjustment methods and systems
    Patent number: 7676015
    Abstract: Methods and systems for reactor lattice depletion are disclosed. One exemplary method, among others, comprises the steps of defining a reactor eigenvalue, the reactor eigenvalue being a specified ratio of actual neutron production to loss in the reactor; producing a lattice eigenvalue, the lattice eigenvalue being an estimated ratio of neutron production to loss in the lattice; and adjusting a boundary condition of the lattice to cause convergence of the lattice eigenvalue and the reactor eigenvalue in order to produce at least one physics parameter.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 6, 2006
    Date of Patent: March 9, 2010
    Assignee: Georgia Tech Research Corporation
    Inventors: Farzad Rahnema, Benoit Forget
  • Method And Installation For Acousto-Optic Imaging
    Publication number: 20080037367
    Abstract: This invention concerns an acousto-optic imaging method comprising a step which consists in engraving in a dynamic holographic material a complex index array resulting from the interference of the acousto-optic component of the signal wave and a pump wave of frequency equal to the frequency of the acousto-optic component.
