To benefit of humankind, radiation is used in medicine, industry, and academics, as well as
for generating electricity. Neutron radiation is a kind of ionisation emission that releases free …

With the rising demand for nuclear energy, the storage/transportation of radioactive nuclear
by-products are critical safety issues for humans and the environment. These by-products …

For the first time, the hazardous chrysotile was valorized as an aggregate in radiation
shielding concrete (RSC). This was accomplished through its amalgamation with two …

The residual properties of radiation shielding concrete subjected to high temperatures
require reassessment, considering that it may be exposed to high temperatures during …

Boron compounds are effective neutron shielding materials because of their high neutron
reaction cross-section. However, their use is limited in cementitious materials because of the …

Ionizing radiation has become much more prevalent in our lives, which need an increasing
requirement for radiation shielding materials. The conventional melt-quench procedure was …

The paper presents a study on the properties of New Generation Shielding Concrete (NGS-
Concrete) modified by materials containing fast neutron moderators and thermal neutron …

Ionizing radiation has become an integral component of modern scientific advancement.
However, radiation can be harmful to human health if not shielded efficiently. Extensive …

Four concrete mixes, goethite-limonite concrete (GL), barite-limonite concrete (BL), steel
slag-limonite concrete (SL), and dolomite concrete (DC) were prepared and designed to …

Modeling studies of the effect of cement type, aggregate type and w/c ratio on the bound
water amount and shielding properties against neutron ionising radiation of concretes are …
