Analyzing simulation-based PRA data through traditional and topological clustering: A BWR station blackout case study
Dynamic probabilistic risk assessment (DPRA) methodologies couple system simulator codes (e.g., RELAP, MELCOR) with simulation controller codes (e.g., RAVEN, ADAPT). Whereas syste...
