· Annals of Nuclear Energy
The complementary role of experiments and of sensitivity analysis has been and still is a key feature of validation strategies used in the field of simulation tools for nuclear reactor design. The present paper gives a summary of the development of more and more sophisticated validation strategies up to the present trend for science-based validation approaches. Most examples and some very recent original developments are given, mostly in the field of neutronics that has traditionally provided cutting edge advances for simulation tools validation.
