Various methods and sensitivity/uncertainty tools have been developed over the years to assist in determining upper subcritical limits (USLs). The task is to compare calculated USLs from various methods on a small set of benchmark problems. The benchmark experiments selected are the following applications: HEU-MET-FAST-013-001, HEU-SOL-THERM-001-008, PU-MET-FAST-022-001, and PU-SOL-THERM-001-001.
