Establishment of guideline for credibility assessment of nuclear simulations

Tanaka, Masaaki  

Guideline for Credibility Assessment of Nuclear Simulations has been established and issued by the Atomic Energy Society of Japan (AESJ) through the discussion at the Simulation Reliability Assessment Subcommittee in the Advanced and Fundamental Systems Technical Committee (ATC), the ATC and the Standards Committee (SC). This guideline specifies the fundamental concept on the assessment of simulation credibility in the nuclear system. When the guideline is to be issued, recent status of the activities for publication of guidelines and standards related to the verification and validation inside and outside the country is introduced.
