Abstract:
Based on the genetic algorithm, this paper focuses on the optimization of the nuclear reactor shielding design and conducts the studies about the single-objective and multi-objectives optimization problem of the reactor shielding design. The methods, developed in this paper, have been validated by the shielding of the Savannah nuclear ship. The effectiveness and correctness of the single-objective and multi-objectives optimization methods for nuclear reactor shielding have been fully demonstrated. A new technique has been provided for the shielding optimization of the reactor design in the future.
