תקציר	Criticality safety analysis is a systematic evaluation of fissile material systems to ensure nuclear chain reactions remain controlled, originating from Hahn and Strassmann's 1938 discovery of nuclear fission. It determines safe limits on fissile mass, concentration, geometry, and spacing using neutron transport calculations and experimental validation to prevent uncontrolled nuclear excursions in storage, processing, and transportation.	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.
