A Simple and Efficient Control Rod Cusping Model for Three-Dimensional Pin-by-Pin Core Calculations
TL;DR: In this paper, a new solution for the control rod cusping problem in the three-dimensional pin-by-pin core calculation is proposed, and the current advanced nodal code resolves this issue by estimating...

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the smoothly varying cross sections can be obtained by projecting the piecewise set of cross sections onto the set of Legendre polynomials up to a finite order and provided accurate results based on the C5G7-TD benchmark.
Accuracy of a predictor-corrector quasi-static method for space-time reactor dynamics
TL;DR: In this article, an improved version of the quasi-static method, called the Improved Quasi-Static Method (IQM), was proposed for both solid-and liquid fuel systems.

POLCA-T Neutron Kinetics Model Benchmarking
TL;DR: The demand for computational tools that are capable to reliably predict the behavior of a nuclear reactor core in a variety of static and dynamic conditions does inevitably require a proper qualifi ...

TL;DR: The NLG iteration method is extended to make it capable of transient calculations of 3-D heterogeneous problems, and a neighboring spectral index (NSI) weighting method is suggested as a tool for correcting the rod cusping phenomenon for rod ejection problems.
