Hybrid Statistical Testing for Nuclear Material Accounting Data and/or Process Monitoring Data in Nuclear Safeguards
The aim of nuclear safeguards is to ensure that special nuclear material is used for peaceful purposes. Historically, nuclear material accounting (NMA) has provided the quantitative basis for monitoring for nuclear material loss or diversion, and process monitoring (PM) data is collected by the operator to monitor the process. PM data typically support NMA in various ways, often by providing a ...
متن کاملModelling and Simulation for Nuclear Material Accounting and Process Monitoring in Nuclear Safeguards
Nuclear safeguards at inspected facilities aims to deter or detect special nuclear material (SNM) diversion and to do so is increasingly relying on process monitoring (PM) to augment nuclear material accounting (NMA). In NMA, SNM material balances are computed approximately every 30 days, and modeling and simulation are used to predict detector performance, to model SNM flows and inventory, and...
متن کاملAccounting for the Material Stock of Nations
National material stock (MS) accounts have been a neglected field of analysis in industrial ecology, possibly because of the difficulty in establishing such accounts. In this research, we propose a novel method to model national MS based on historical material flow data. This enables us to avoid the laborious data work involved with bottom-up accounts for stocks and to arrive at plausible level...
متن کاملRevisiting Growth Accounting from a Trade in Value-added Perspective
Global Manufacturing and International Supply Chains changed the way trade and international economics are understood today. The present essay builds on recent statistical advances to suggest new ways of looking at the demand and supply side approaches when Global Value Chains (GVCs) —articulating supply and demand chains from an international perspective— are taken into consideration. This pil...
متن کاملToward a Functional Accounting System ; Accounting Variances and Statistical Variance Analysis toward a Functional Accounting System; Accounting Variances and Statistical Variance Analysis
The functions of accounting and statistics are in most respects similar, These fields are both tools, concerned with the processes of measurement, collection of data, analysis and decision making. In performing their functions both accounting and statistics rely heavily on signals generated by variations from expected performance. Even in their manifested differences these two fields are at wor...
