Abstract: A traveling wave nuclear fission reactor, fuel assembly, and a method of controlling burnup therein. In a traveling wave nuclear fission reactor, a nuclear fission reactor fuel assembly comprises a plurality of nuclear fission fuel rods that are exposed to a deflagration wave burnfront that, in turn, travels through the fuel rods. The excess reactivity is controlled by a plurality of movable neutron absorber structures that are selectively inserted into and withdrawn from the fuel assembly in order to control the excess reactivity and thus the location, speed and shape of the burnfront. Controlling location, speed and shape of the burnfront manages neutron fluence seen by fuel assembly structural materials in order to reduce risk of temperature and irradiation damage to the structural materials.

Abstract: A collision detection system of a land vehicle may be configured to coordinate sensor operation with one or more other sensing systems of one or more other land vehicles. The coordination may comprise configuring the other sensing systems. In some embodiments, the coordination comprises forming a multistatic sensor comprising one or more emitters and/or one or more receivers. The collision detection system may be configured to receive detection signal(s) emitted by one or more of the other sensing systems. The coordination may further comprise directing detection signals of the multistatic sensor. The collision detection system may use sensor data acquired by use of the coordinated sensing system(s) to generate a collision detection model.
