Operational issue – Amazon EC2 Outage (N. Virginia): Some TCP customers are currently experiencing a service outage related to the AWS power failure in Northern Virginia which is broadly impacting software providers globally. AWS expects full recover to happen this morning, but has acknowledged unexpected delays. Realtime updates from AWS can be found here and updates directly from TCP can be found here. TCP is working behind the scenes to migrate impacted customers to a secondary datacenter should AWS be unable to resolve their issue this morning.
I have seen the "complete" solution manual (usually a scanned 400-page PDF from the 1980s). It is out there. , I have also seen students copy it blindly and fail their oral exams. Why? Because Duderstadt’s problems are designed to be derived , not memorized. The manual frequently skips intermediate steps (e.g., "after integrating over angle, we obtain...").
To understand why students seek the , one must look at the specific topics covered. The text is dense, covering three primary areas that form the bedrock of reactor physics. Nuclear Reactor Analysis Duderstadt Hamilton Solution
Solving for the precursor concentrations that allow for human or mechanical control of a reactor. Why "Duderstadt Hamilton Solutions" are Highly Sought After I have seen the "complete" solution manual (usually
Duderstadt’s treatment of the adjoint neutron transport equation is particularly terse. The solution manual is invaluable here because it walks through the physical meaning of the adjoint flux (neutron importance). A typical solution will show: To understand why students seek the , one
