This invention is provided for improvement of corrosion-resistant property of a crucible and for promotion of safety in a pyrochemical reprocessing method for the spent nuclear fuel. Perimeter receiver fiber optics preferably are spaced apart from a source fiber optic and receive light from the surface of the objecttooth being measured. The failure prediction algorithm is generated in a human readable format and uses terms and operators familiar to experts in the field of storage systems. A controller couples a selected one of the equalization characteristic sets to the multi-channel equalization filter in response to a vehicle environment identification signal. The two lines preferably have discontinuities of equal length at their midpoints so as to be comprised of segments of equal length. Enhanced port density is provided by interconnecting the modules with 12 GbE links which operate on standard 10 GbE wiring and connectors.
