ANALYSIS OF DOSE RATES AROUND THE SLOVENIAN SILO-TYPE LILW REPOSITORY USING ADVANTG [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
The ADVANTG code was used to analyze dose rates from the proposed Slovenian silo-type low and intermediate level waste (LILW) repository. Detailed calculations of dose rates are challenging as gamma-sources are located in thick concrete containers and ...

IMPLEMENTATION OF MONTE CARLO MOMENT MATCHING METHOD FOR PRICING LOOKBACK FLOATING STRIKE OPTION

open access: yesBarekeng, 2022
Monte Carlo method was a numerical method that was popular in finance. This method had disadvantages at convergences, so the moment matching was used to improve the efficiency from Monte Carlo method.

Generalizing the Balance Heuristic Estimator in Multiple Importance Sampling

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
In this paper, we propose a novel and generic family of multiple importance sampling estimators. We first revisit the celebrated balance heuristic estimator, a widely used Monte Carlo technique for the approximation of intractable integrals.

TOWARDS ZERO-VARIANCE SCHEMES FOR KINETIC MONTE-CARLO SIMULATIONS [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
The solution of the time-dependent transport problem for neutrons and precursors in a nuclear reactor is hard to treat in a naive Monte-Carlo framework because of the largely different time scales associated to the prompt-fission chains and to the decay ...

ROBUST SIMULATION METHOD OF COMPLEX TECHNICAL TRANSPORT SYSTEMS [PDF]

open access: yesTransport Problems, 2021
In the optimization of technical systems focused on a specific functional purpose (reliability, safety, and availability) with the use of simulation methods, an important parameter is the digital simulation time of the research subject.

Pilot development: an empirical mixed-method analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Defense Analytics and Logistics, 2022
Purpose – Pilot upgrade training is critical to aircraft and passenger safety. This study aims to identify variances in the US Air Force C-130J pilot upgrade training based on geographic location and provide a model to enhance policy that will impact ...

Bayesian autoregressive adaptive refined descriptive sampling algorithm in the Monte Carlo simulation

open access: yesStatistical Theory and Related Fields, 2023
This paper deals with the Monte Carlo Simulation in a Bayesian framework. It shows the importance of the use of Monte Carlo experiments through refined descriptive sampling within the autoregressive model $ X_{t}=\rho X_{t-1}+Y_{t} $ , where $ 0 \lt \rho

INVESTIGATION ON DETERMINISTIC TRUNCATION TO CONTINUOUS ENERGY MONTE CARLO NEUTRON TRANSPORT CALCULATION [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
This paper presents the application and evaluation of a deterministic truncation of Monte Carlo (DTMC) solution method in a whole core reactor problem based on a continuous energy transport calculation. The DTMC method has been studied and developed as a

Improving Random Projections With Extra Vectors to Approximate Inner Products

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
This research concerns itself with increasing the accuracy of random projections used to quickly approximate the inner products of data vectors from a given dataset by adding additional information, namely, adding and storing more extra known vectors to ...
