Variational methods and speed-up of Monte Carlo perturbation computations for optimal design in nuclear systems

Seeking optimal material distribution in a nuclear system to maximize a response function of interest has been a subject of considerable interest in nuclear engineering. Examples are the optimal fuel distribution in a nuclear reactor core to achieve uniform burnup using minimum critical mass and the...
