Unexpected behaviour in printmat #146

Closed dodu94 closed 2 years ago

dodu94 commented 2 years ago

printing the infos on the TypicalMaterial file produces an unexepected behaviour which was not immediately reproducible with other inputs: image material fractions of submaterial 1 in m200 appear to be wrong. Investigation is needed.

After a more accurate investigation it can be concluded that this is not a bug. The fact is that in material M200, submaterial 1 accounts for 99.9923% of the entire material fraction as it is showed below: image

This means that the submaterial and material fractions for the single isotopes appear to be equal only due to the approximation to the 3 significant digit.

If all digits are displayed the small difference is there: image

The issue can be closed
