Prediction Primary Radiation Shielding Wall Thickness with Artificial Neural Networks

In this study, wall thickness for using in primary radiation shielding was determined in different energy ranges using tenth value layer by artificial neural networks. Radiation energy values, tenth value layers and negative logarithm of transmission factor (n) were selected as input parameters and wall shielding thickness values selected as output parameters. Consequently, developed artificial neural networks model outputs were compared with experimental results and it was seen that the results were harmonious. DOI: 10.12693/APhysPolA.123.171
