A Spectral Approach for Solving the Nonclassical Transport Equation
R. Vasques, L. R. C. Moraes, R. C. Barros +1
This paper introduces a mathematical approach that allows one to numerically solve the nonclassical transport equation in a deterministic fashion using classical numerical procedur…
Gnowee: A Hybrid Metaheuristic Optimization Algorithm for Constrained, Black Box, Combinatorial Mixed-Integer Design
James Bevins, Rachel Slaybaugh
This paper introduces Gnowee, a modular, Python-based, open-source hybrid metaheuristic optimization algorithm (Available from https://github.com/SlaybaughLab/Gnowee). Gnowee is de…
Weighted Delta-Tracking in Scattering Media
J. S. Rehak, L. M. Kerby, M. D. DeHart +1
In this work, we expand the weighted delta-tracking routine to include a treatment for scattering. The weighted delta-tracking routine adds survival biasing to normal delta-trackin…
Eigenvalue Solvers for Modeling Nuclear Reactors on Leadership Class Machines
R. N. Slaybaugh, M. Ramirez-Zweiger, Tara Pandya +2
Three complementary methods have been implemented in the code Denovo that accelerate neutral particle transport calculations with methods that use leadership-class computers fully…
Multigrid In Energy Preconditioner for Krylov Solvers
R. N. Slaybaugh, T. M. Evans, G. G. Davidson +1
We have added a new multigrid in energy (MGE) preconditioner to the Denovo discrete-ordinates radiation transport code. This preconditioner takes advantage of a new multilevel para…
FW/CADIS-: An angle-informed hybrid method for deep-penetration radiation transport
Madicken Munk, R. N. Slaybaugh, Tara M. Pandya +2
A new method for generating variance reduction parameters for strongly anisotropic, deep-penetration radiation shielding studies is presented. This method generates an alternate fo…
