Model Documentation of the Domestic EUREKA Model, Version 19. Volume 1. Model description
This report is a documentation of the Domestic EUREKA Model, which is used to assist in forecasting uranium market behavior. The model provides annual projections of US uranium production, prices, and other key indicators. The projections are based on simulations of geologic endowment, production decisions, and market responses. The documentation is organized into three volumes. Volume 1, Model Description, consists of sections which provide increasing levels of detail as the reader progresses. A model abstract provides a brief summary of EUREKA, and the model overview provides a non-technical discussion. In the next section, a process flow diagram and a discussion of the major functional calculations of EUREKA are given. A detailed mathematical specification is included and treats the major processing functions in great detail. Additionally, a section is included to document the estimation of various parameters which are input to the model. Lastly, a section is included which provides the reader with a brief description of how users may operate the computer program of the model. Volume 2, Data Dictionary, contains a complete listing of all model variables, parameters, and arrays. The Data Dictionary provides a description of each variable in terms of its definition, dimensions, units, default value, source, and subroutines where it is located. Volume 3, Model Listings contains a listing of commented source code, a summary of all model parameter default values, and a sample of EUREKA's input.
