Self-training artificial neural networks for risk reduction in nuclear power operations
The risk reduction potential of the class of artificial neural networks based on the Barto-Sutton architecture is established. The risk associated with nuclear power operations is characterized by sequences of discrete events, such as technical specification violation. The Barto-Sutton architecture …

The Effect of a Trace Element Supplement on the Biomethane Potential of Food Waste Anaerobic Digestion
… determined by the gas density-based biomethane potential method at mesophilic (37°C) conditions over 30 days. The three treatments were inoculum only, food waste and inoculum, and food waste and inoculum with an added trace element solution. There was no significant difference between treatments …
