Abstract

The AZTLAN Platform project is a Mexican national initiative which aims to have a platform for analysis and design of nuclear reactors. In order to enhance the AZTLAN Platform with Uncertainty and Sensitivity (U&S) capabilities, the AZTUSIA (AZtlan Tool for Uncertainty and SensItivity Analysis) code has been developed to perform U&S analysis.
