Monte Cario uncertainty propagation approaches in ADS burn-up calculations
In activation calculations, there are several approaches to quantify uncertainties: deterministic by means of sensitivity analysis, and stochastic by means of Monte Carlo. Here, two different Monte Carlo approaches for nuclear data uncertainty are presented: the first one is the Total Monte Carlo (TMC). The second one is by means of a Monte Carlo sampling of the covariance information included ...
متن کاملPartial Level Densities for Nuclear Data Calculations
The main formalisms of partial level densities (PLD) used in preequilibrium nuclear reaction models, based on the equidistant spacing model (ESM), are considered. A collection of FORTRAN77 functions for PLD calculation by using 14 formalisms for the related partial-state densities is provided and 28 sample cases (73 versions) are described. The results are given in graphic form too. Composite (...
متن کاملTRIGA fuel burn-up calculations and its confirmation
The Cesium (Cs-137) isotopic concentration due to irradiation of TRIGA Fuel Elements FE(s) is calculated andmeasured at the Atominstitute (ATI) of ViennaUniversity of Technology (VUT). The Cs-137 isotope, as proved burn-up indicator, was applied to determine the burn-up of the TRIGAMark II research reactor FE. This article presents the calculations andmeasurements of the Cs-137 isotope and its ...
متن کاملAutomatic Propagation of Uncertainties
Motivated by problems in metrology, we consider a numerical evaluation program y = f(x) as a model for a measurement process. We use a probability density function to represent the uncertainties in the inputs x and examine some of the consequences of using Automatic Differentiation to propagate these uncertainties to the outputs y. We show how to use a combination of Taylor series propagation a...
متن کاملUncertainties in internal dose calculations for radiopharmaceuticals.
This paper presents a systematic analysis of the inherent uncertainty in internal dose calculations for radiopharmaceuticals. A generic equation for internal dose is presented, and the uncertainty in each of the individual terms is analyzed, with the relative uncertainty of all terms compared. The combined uncertainties in most radiopharmaceutical dose estimates will be typically at least a fac...
