NEUP CINR-21-24636: Risk-informed Consequence-driven Physical Protection System Optimization for Microreactor Sites

This proposed project will directly address the objectives described in Technical Work Scope Identifier CT-4 by using a risk-informed, consequence-driven analysis to develop an approach for "right-sizing" physical protection systems (PPS) for microreactors. The hypothesis presented for this proposal is that the explicit coupling of consequence modeling to PPS design will provide a similar benefit that can be applied prior to reactor construction.
