Uncertainty quantification in nuclear criticality modelling using methods of polynomial chaos
In this thesis we use polynomial chaos expansions to represent the response of criticality calculations when they are subject to large numbers (many hundreds) of correlated nuclear data uncertainties. An adaptive high dimensional model representation (HDMR) is used to decompose the response paramete...
