FileTransportMaterial
The FileTransportMaterial has not been documented. The content listed below should be used as a starting point for documenting the class, which includes the typical automatic documentation associated with a MooseObject; however, what is contained is ultimately determined by what is necessary to make the documentation clear for users.
Provides the neutron group velocity (), neutron group total cross-section (), and the scattering cross-section moments () for transport problems. The material properties are imported from files provided by the user. The user many also provide volumetric neutron source moments through the input parameter system.
