Self Shielding in Rectangular and Cylindrical Geometries
A 1956 NASA technical report on neutron self-shielding in rectangular and cylindrical reactor geometries, produced for nuclear engineers and reactor physicists. Its pictures are graph-paper plots of neutron flux against variable distance in metres, with labelled curves for transport and diffusion theory across regions of water, uranium and steel. A designer might take the clean grid layouts, boxed annotation panels and thin contrasting curve lines as a model for technical data graphics.
