Applications of Analytic Models to Spent Fuel Cask Analysis

The advent of high performance computing has changed the way scientists and engineers solve problems. Scientists previously would make a tremendous effort to simplify a complex problem to it’s essence by reducing geometry, neglecting changes and only preserving first-order effects. Now, scientist are able to leave the details in the problem and computationally arrive at a result. To develop the computational physics programs used by scientists, developers make assumptions and use approximation to reduce complex, continuous calculus to algebraic expressions which computers are able to solve.
