Abstract: This paper contributes to the investigation of recent computationally efficient variance-based methods for sensitivity analysis and sampling schemes on the basis of a Performance Assessment (PA) model for a repository for Low- and Intermediate-Level Radioactive Waste (LILW) in an abandonned salt mine. The PA model takes account of typical characteristics of repository systems including a quasi-discrete nature.
