Materials for Advanced Energy Systems and Fission & Fusion Engineering: Proceedings of the Seventh China-Japan Symposium

The verification study of high burnup LWR fuels was carried out mainly under the direction of committees of NUPEC. The author wishes to express his gratitude to the members of the "Committee of Verification Tests on High Burnup Fuel", especially the late Dr. T. Okubo for their discussions and evaluations with respect to this program. The author also gratefully acknowledges METI for the sponsorship on this project. He is grateful to Dr. H. Hayashi of NUPEC for his assistance in preparing this report. He also acknowledges JNC for the information on the study of Advanced Fast Reactor Fuel Cycle Technology.
