Nodal Synthesis—Consistent Nodal Approach for Global Reactor Analysis
TLDR
In this article, a new nodal approach for global reactor core calculations is described, in which local weighted residual procedure equations are consistently embedded into a classical nodal scheme without the need for a global nodal algorithm.Abstract:

Response matrix of square node with full symmetries
TL;DR: In this paper, a response matrix based on incoming currents averaged on half-surface of two-dimensional square node is developed by applying theory of symmetry, and boundary conditions of incoming currents on a surface of node are reduced to the ones averaged on a half surface.

Hexagonal response matrix using symmetries
TL;DR: In this article, a response matrix based on the incoming currents averaged on half-surface of a hexagonal mode is presented by applying theory of symmetry, where boundary conditions of incoming currents are expressed by a complete set of orthogonal vectors which are constructed from the symmetrized functions.

Response Matrix of Symmetric Nodes
TL;DR: In this paper, the symmetry properties of a symmetric node's response matrix are discussed and a transformation diagonalizing the response matrix is given by means of symmetry considerations, which is implemented in coarse-mesh programs both in Cartesian and hexagonal geometries.
