Monte Carlo burnup and its uncertainty propagation analyses for VERA depletion benchmarks by McCARD

For an efficient Monte Carlo (MC) burnup analysis, an accurate high-order depletion scheme to consider the nonlinear flux variation in a coarse burnup-step interval is crucial accompanied with an accurate depletion equation solver. In a Seoul National University MC code, McCARD, the high-order deple...
