Interplay of Variance Reduction and Population Control in Monte Carlo Neutron Transport

Jordan Northrop, Ilham Variansyah, Todd Palmer +1

Monte Carlo methods are widely used for neutron transport simulations at least partly because of the accuracy they bring to the modeling of these problems. However, the computation…

Comparing the Performance of MC/DC's on-GPU Event-based Processing Methods in Multigroup and Continuous-energy Problems

Braxton Cuneo, Joanna Piper Morgan, Ilham Variansyah +1

Monte Carlo / Dynamic Code (MC/DC) is a portable Monte Carlo neutron transport package for rapid numerical methods exploration in heterogeneous and HPC contexts, developed under th…

Mitigating Spatial Error in the iterative-Quasi-Monte Carlo (iQMC) Method for Neutron Transport Simulations with Linear Discontinuous Source Tilting and Effective Scattering and Fission Rate Tallies

Samuel Pasmann, Ilham Variansyah, C. T. Kelley +1

The iterative Quasi-Monte Carlo (iQMC) method is a recently proposed method for multigroup neutron transport simulations. iQMC can be viewed as a hybrid between deterministic itera…

An effective initial particle sampling technique for Monte Carlo reactor transient simulations

Ilham Variansyah, Ryan G. McClarren

We propose a technique to effectively sample initial neutron and delayed neutron precursor particles for Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of typical off-critical reactor transients. Th…

High-fidelity treatment for object movement in time-dependent Monte Carlo transport simulations

Ilham Variansyah, Ryan G. McClarren

We investigate the use of time-dependent surfaces in Monte Carlo transport simulation to accurately model prescribed, continuous object movements. The performance of the continuous…

Development of MC/DC: a performant, scalable, and portable Python-based Monte Carlo neutron transport code

Ilham Variansyah, J. P. Morgan, Jordan Northrop +2

We discuss the current development of MC/DC (Monte Carlo Dynamic Code). MC/DC is primarily designed to serve as an exploratory Python-based MC transport code. However, it seeks to…
