Concepts in Non Smooth Contact Dynamics (NSCD)
and Applications Jumps in velocities is 2nd
order equation of motion appropriate?
Non Smooth Mechanics accounting roughly for
the real behaviour, discarding details, either
because there is insufficient data for this to be
meaningful or consideration of details would not
bring about significant change, hence should be
ignored (Moreau, Jean)

Graphite core (moderator). Fuel channels (tubes
containing uranium) run vertically through the
core. Graphite core slows down the neutrons
released by the fuel to sustain the chain
reaction.
Graphite core also contains channels for boron
steel control rods. These can be raised and
lowered to control the reactor power by absorbing
neutrons and stopping them splitting atoms.
