Σύνοψη	Nuclear fuel cycle analysis is a comprehensive assessment of uranium and plutonium flows from extraction through enrichment, power generation, and waste management, originating from Fermi's controlled nuclear reaction. It quantifies resource requirements, energy balances, greenhouse gas emissions, and waste streams to evaluate nuclear energy sustainability, proliferation risk, and economic viability.	Radiation dose assessment is a systematic evaluation of human exposure to ionizing radiation from external or internal sources, formalized by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) in the late 20th century. It combines radiation transport calculations with biological effect models to quantify absorbed dose, equivalent dose, and effective dose for worker safety and public health protection.
