Purpose
Passive Safety Systems will play a crucial role in the mitigation of risk for many different AR designs. AR designs may rely more heavily on Passive Safety Systems than the current fleet of LWRs which is why this area of research is deemed a high priority.
Scope
Not only is it important to understand how passive safety systems operate, but also how different factors (both internal and external) can influence the actuation of the safety system and how to determine the associated uncertainty. Uncertainty will be a major focus in this topic, as it is likely that passive safety systems designed for ARs will have a larger range of uncertainty than those designed for the current fleet of LWRs.
