Activities in Spain on the integration of probabilistic and deterministic safety analysis methods. Discussion on their applicability to DEC-A scenarios

This paper presents a summary of theoretical and applied achievements in the field of integrated methods of nuclear safety analysis produced by Spain’s nuclear safety community. These integrated methods combine deterministic as well as probabilistic tools and include the approaches termed “Extended...
