Seminarium Zakładu Energetyki Jądrowej i Analiz Środowiska

The presentation will focus on the severe accident analyses for PWR nuclear reactors. In the first part, severe accident phenomenology and MELCOR computer code will be discussed. In the second part, the example analysis performed in the framework of the WP5 NARSIS Horizon 2020 Project will be presented and discussed.

A predictive science for many problems of interest requires advanced mathematical and computational tools that explain how the uncertainties, ubiquitous in all modeling and simulation efforts, affect our predictions and understanding of complex phenomena. This remains a fundamental difficulty in most modeling and simulation applications. There are many classification systems for the different uncertainties which occur in modeling and simulation. Most practical uncertainty frameworks are discipline-specific or model-specific.
