Nuclear power has important fundamental features that are absent in other power generation technologies, since nuclear fuel has million times larger energy content, while nuclear waste is relatively low in volume, which makes it reliably localizable. This paper presents a study of the strength and electrical insulation properties of polymer concretes in a wide range of altering the polymer-concrete ratios. The analysis has identified an optimal polymer-cement composition for electrical insulation. It is herein demonstrated that polymer cements can be used for insulation of electromagnets. The tasks of creating new materials that meet the requirements of the time, the development of technologies that go beyond the solution of standard practical problems of the construction industry, and, accordingly, the emergence of related problems are the picture of modernity. This paper is useful for further developments in the construction industry, designed to solve the problems of using modern technologies and materials that have a negative impact on the environment. Thus, this allows the application of this approach in complex construction situations, including when working in environmentally complex areas, for leveling radiation.
The methodology contains principal provisions on defining reliability and accident risk of industrial buildings and establishes requirements necessary to identify the life expectancy of a building. The methods are intended to be used in diagnostics and identification of the technical condition and life expectancy of buildings that exceeded the lifespan established in their design, reference documentation or after accidents and renovations.
Environmental protection and reasonable use of natural resources stipulates for shaping consumer culture correcting the way of life of a modern society in compliance with the environmental requirements of modern life. It is necessary to introduce the measures efficiently regulating economic activity and orienting it towards environmentally correct forms. It is generally known that the key factor of the further civilization development is an efficient use of energy sources. In this connection, a reasonable way of developing national economy is the replacement of traditional “non-renewable” energy sources by alternative ones. The way of the economic development is the search for new ways of providing the national economy with a sufficient amount of energy with a corresponding reduction of the general volume of its use.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
