摘要
In this work, the implicit Euler-Maruyama method is used to solve the stochastic point kinetics equations for different forms of reactivity: constant, linear and sinusoidal. A covariance matrix is proposed considering the one-speed diffusion theory of a nuclear reactor subject to the initial condition applying to the pulsed neutron methods. The results obtained with this method are more efficient in the calculation of neutron densities and delayed neutron precursors. It was possible to reduce the standard deviation with a very good precision for the expected values. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
