Abstract

Numerous slope failures have occurred due to climate change especially in tropical region. Rainfall become more extreme that cause more slope failures to occur. Rainwater could infiltrate in the soil and cause soil expansion that could potentially weakens the effective stress and causing slope failure. This paper aims to study the effects of extreme rainfall on slopes in Langat River, Selangor, Malaysia by modelling the existing slopes by using the finite element method software, Plaxis 2D. Results will be discussed in term of pore-water pressure, and factor of safety of the slope. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Spent fuel transfer cask is used to transfer a spent fuel from the reactor tank to the spent fuel storage or for spent fuel inspection. Typically, the cask made from steel cylinders that are either welded or bolted closed. The cylinder is enclosed with additional steel, concrete, or other material to provide radiation shielding and containment of the spent fuel. This paper will discuss the Conceptual Design of fuel transfer cask for Reactor TRIGA Puspati (RTP). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
