Abstract
The TMI-2 and Fukushima Daiichi accidents appear to be dissimilar because they involve different reactor types. However, the health physics related lessons learned from TMI-2 are applicable, and can enhance the Fukushima Daiichi recovery effort.
► TMI-2 health physics lessons learned are applicable to Fukushima Daiichi Accident. ► Fuel damage sequence of these accidents are similar. ► On-site recovery actions will be similar, but Fukushima Daiichi is more demanding. ► Offsite recovery actions are significantly more challenging at Fukushima Daiichi.
