Thermal-fluid-structure coupling analysis for plate-type fuel assembly under irradiation. Part-I numerical methodology

The plate-type fuel assembly adopted in nuclear research reactor suffers from complicated effect induced by non-uniform irradiation, which might affect its stress conditions, mechanical behavior and thermal-hydraulic performance. A reliable numerical method is of great importance to reveal the compl...
