First-of-a-Kind deployment prospects for small modular reactors

This paper utilizes a probabilistic framework and a database of 75 designs to demonstrate that vendor-announced timelines for Small Modular Reactor (SMR) First-of-a-Kind deployment are systematically overambitious, projecting a median of only 13 designs operational by 2035 and 24 to 48 by 2050, with near-term growth concentrated in China and Russia before shifting to OECD markets.

Trim-Constrained Aero-Propulsive Assessment of Distributed Electric Ducted Fans for a Fixed-Wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

This paper presents a trim-constrained aero-propulsive framework for integrating twelve distributed electric ducted fans on a fixed-wing UAV, revealing that while the configuration significantly augments lift, it incurs substantial drag penalties and reduces elevator authority, ultimately identifying an aft-center-of-gravity position as the optimal compromise for vehicle feasibility.
