Bicyclus: A Statistical Fuel Cycle Simulation Framework for Nuclear Verification

This repository contains the code used during the case study from Bicyclus: A Statistical Fuel Cycle Simulation Framework for Nuclear Verification (Max Schalz, Lewin Bormann, Malte Göttsche, under submission in Annals of Nuclear Energy).

Structure

• simulations/ contains the driver files used in the forward and inference runs (forward_simulations.py and reconstruction_run.py) as well as functions used to generate the Cyclus input files (cyclus_input.py and others).
• analysis/ contains the scripts used to read out data and generate the figures. analysis/imgs/ contains data from the different runs (as .cdf or .h5 files) and will also contain the figures after running the scripts.

Requirements

To run the simulations, you need to have Bicyclus installed.

The plotting scripts use standard scientific Python packages, including Pandas, matplotlib and seaborn.
