TLDR
In this article, a PWS code was developed to include a numerical solution for the time-dependent neutron diffusion equations for the nuclear reactor analysis, which employs a new parameter (α) which can reduce the rapid increase in magnitude of the power series coefficients.

Generalized power series method with step size control for neutron kinetics equations

TL;DR: In this paper, a generalized power series method (GPWS) has been introduced for solving the point reactor kinetics equations, where the stiffness of the kinetics equation restricts the time interval to a small increment, which in turn restricts the PWS method within a very small constant step size.

A novel mathematical model for two-energy groups of the point kinetics reactor dynamics

TL;DR: In this article, a novel analytical formulation is constructed and converged to high accuracy from the merger of the piecewise constant functions over a partition in time into the fundamental matrix for the two-energy group of the point kinetics equations.

High-order lattice Boltzmann method for multi-group neutron diffusion solution

TL;DR: A high-order lattice Boltzmann method is presented to solve multi-group neutron diffusion problems in both transient and eigenvalue situations, and the numerical accuracy of the proposed model can be continuously increased by adopting higher-order truncation while preserving the current level of calculation efficiency.
