<p> A multiple temporal-mode transformation is applied to
the finite difference form of the space-dependent reactor
kinetics equations with the aim of reducing the truncation
error. The transformation method is incorporated into an
existing alternaing-direction explicit code and is tested
on three homogeneous problems in one and two dimenisions
as well as on a one-dimensional space-dependent CANDU-type
problem. The numerical results have confirmed some characteristics
of this solution formalism with respect to accuracy
and stability. In addition, this study has identified some
areas for improvement to the multiple temporal-mode trans-ยท
formation technique. </p> / Thesis / Master of Engineering (MEngr)
