In nuclear power plant construction scheduling, a project is generally defined by its dependent preparation time, the time required for construction, and its reactor installation time. The issues of multiple construction teams and multiple reactor installation teams are considered. In this paper, a hierarchical particle swarm optimization algorithm is proposed to solve the nuclear power plant construction scheduling problem and minimize the occurrence of projects failing to achieve deliverables within applicable due times and deadlines.

Due to its danger and complexity, the identification and prediction of major severe accident scenarios from an initiating event of a nuclear power plant remains a challenging task. This paper aims to classify severe accident at the Advanced Power Reactor (APR) 1400, which includes the loss of coolant accidents (LOCA), total loss of feedwater (TLOFW), station blackout (SBO), and steam generator tube rupture (SGTR) using a standard  probabilistic neural network (PNN)  and Particle Swarm Optimization Based Probabilistic Neural Network (PSO PNN). The algorithm has been implemented in MATLAB.  The experiment results showed that supervised PNN PSO could classify severe accident of nuclear power plant better than the standar PNN.
