Assessment of the environmental radiological impact in the emergency exposure phase through the simulation of a uranium mining tailings dam breach
This work is aiming at estimating the radiation doses to members of the public in case of an emergency exposure situation related to a hypothetical uranium mining tailings dam rupture at the UDC - Decommissioning Unit of Caldas, MG, Brazil. The calculations will help to managing the exposures of eme...
