Hanford Test Pile (open access)

Hanford Test Pile

The Hanford Test Pile is a heterogeneous, low power, graphite moderated natural uranium pile. The pile consists of an eighteen foot cube of graphite containing 292 charged channels in a square array with an 8-1/2-inch lattice spacing. This report describes the reactor and the operating procedures used, and presents the latest results of calibrations performed. These calibrations supersede other work which has been done on the Test Pile and contain refinements of most of the early calibrations.

Torsional Stiffness of Thin-Walled Shells Having Reinforcing Cores and Rectangular, Triangular, or Diamond Cross Section (open access)

Torsional Stiffness of Thin-Walled Shells Having Reinforcing Cores and Rectangular, Triangular, or Diamond Cross Section

"A theoretical investigation has been made of the Saint-Venant torsion of certain composite bars. These bars are composed of two materials -- one material in the form of a thin-walled cylindrical shell and the other material in the form of a core which fills the interior of the shell and is bonded to it. An approximate boundary-value problem is formulated on assumptions similar to those of the theory of torsion of hollow thin-walled shells (Bredt theory)" (p. 771).
