+\subsection{WIMSD4 microscopic cross-section examples.}\label{sect:ExWWIMSD4}
+
+The test cases we will consider here use the \moc{LIB:} module to enter
+microscopic cross sections taken from a WIMSD4 69 groups library. We will assume
+that this library is located in file {\tt iaea}. The test cases are numbered
+successively from \tst(TCWU01) to \tst(TCWU31).
+
+
+\subsubsection{\tst(TCWU01) -- The Mosteller benchmark.}
+
+\begin{figure}[h!]

+\epsfxsize=5cm \centerline{ \epsffile{GTCW01.eps}}
+\parbox{14cm}{\caption{Geometry for the Mosteller
+benchmark problem.}\label{fig:TCWU01}}
+\end{center}
+\end{figure}
+
+This benchmark uses both a cartesian 2-D cell with a central annular pin and an
+equivalent annular cell.\cite{Mostel} No depletion information is required in
+this case since the module \moc{EVO:} will not be executed. A comparison between
+various calculation options is provided here. We first consider the annular
+geometry with a \moc{SYBILT:} self-shielding and a \moc{SYBILT:} transport
+calculation. This is then repeated for the cartesian 2--D cell. Finally, we used
+an isotropic (\moc{TISO}) and a specular (\moc{TSPC}) \moc{EXCELT:} tracking
+successively for the self-shielding and transport calculations.

+corresponding to the rod in the inserted and extracted position with respect to
+the original supercell containing only 3--D fuel elements are computed.\cite{Mtl93b}
