OECD/NEA Data Bank is hosting a training course from 13 to 17 October 2008 on sensitivity and uncertainty analysis using the SCALE TSUNAMI sequence at KFKI Atomic Energy Research Institute, located in 1121 Budapest, Konkoly Thege út 29-33. The course is open to participants in Uncertainty Analysis in Modeling (UAM) and others from the OECD/NEA member countries who wish to get training in this important area of application. This is held also in support of the first phase of the activity of the UAM concerned with neutronics in reactor cores http://www.nea.fr/html/science/egrsltb/UAM/ and the numerous other activities in areas of multi-scale / multi-physics activities, radiation shielding and criticality margin assessments.  

The course, in addition to providing hands-on training with the TSUNAMI code sequence will provide also perspectives for ongoing developments that will soon be available.

The teachers of the course are well known experts involved with the development of these methods at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
