Descrizione:
In this book, formulation and validation of some computerprograms such as GRIC1toolkit, GRIC2toolkit and BUFtoolkit have been described. These programs are useful in the investigation of gammaray shielding behaviour of engineering materials. Detailed literature concerned with the measurements of each ?rays shielding parameter (GSP) has been systematically provided in the book. Novel concepts of optimumthickness value and AirSlab correction have been discussed in detail. Gammarays shielding behaviours (GSBs) of some building materials as Single Layer Homogeneous Shield (SLHS) and Double Layered HeterogeneousShield (DLHS) has been provided with some useful conclusions. During the compilation of ANSstandards (ANS6.4.3, 1991), Coherentscattering and Bremsstrahlung phenomena have been neglected. Recently, more accurate values of GSPs have been obtained thus the ANSstandards should be updated in near future. This book will be useful in this revision particularly for Double Layered Transmission Exposure Buildup Factors.
