“…The adoption of Reduced Order Methods (ROMs) (Hesthaven et al, 2016;Rozza et al, 2008) can be suitable for this aim, especially in the areas of process optimization, control or uncertainty quantification (Chinesta et al, 2016;Gunzburger, 2002;Quarteroni et al, 2011). The interest in Reduced Order Methods for the simulation of complex systems in nuclear field is increased in the last years, being applied to Monte Carlo methods (Aufiero et al, 2016;Aufiero and Fratoni, 2017), to the deterministic transport equations (Bang et al, 2015;Buchan et al, 2015), and diffusion problems (Buchan et al, 2013;Gong et al, 2016;Lorenzi et al, 2015;Sartori et al, 2014). The fields of application of ROMs are not limited to the neutronics modelling but they are employed also in sensitivity analysis and uncertainty quantification (Abdel-Khalik et al, 2013;Bang et al, 2012a) and in thermal-hydraulic context (Lorenzi et al, 2017(Lorenzi et al, , 2016.…”
