Acceptance risk may be estimated using cumulative probability distribution functions applied to populations of measurands and test measurement values. “Simple acceptance” is a decision rule that sets the acceptance range of a test result equal to the tolerance range specification. While acceptance risk is comprised of both consumer risk and producer risk, this paper compares the effects of simple acceptance decision rules and guardbanding decision rules on consumer risk. Consumer risk is also known as the probability of false acceptance. The terms describe the risk of accepting test results as passing when the actual values exceed specification limits. False acceptance is only possible when the true value of a measurand is out of tolerance and the test result indicates that the measurand is within tolerance. Metrologists generally have some information about the test uncertainty regarding a specific acceptance test result. Along with a general lack of knowledge regarding the measurand population parameters, the complicated interplay between risk, dispersion, and central values generally prevents calibration laboratories from fully characterizing acceptance probabilities. Organizations that model the measurand populations can reduce consumer risk by avoiding certification of items whose measurand populations are not well centered. The models in this paper present a recurring trend: guardbanding reduces nonnegligible risks of false acceptance when compared to simple acceptance. However, guardbanding is not the most effective means of acceptance risk mitigation. Systematic characterization of measurand populations can provide the information a calibration laboratory needs to reliably control acceptance risk.

The Radiation Protection Center (RPC) of the Iraqi Ministry of Environment continues to evaluate the potential health impacts associated with the Adaya Burial Site, which is located 33 kilometers (20.5 miles) southwest of Mosul. This report documents the radiological analyses of 16 groundwater samples collected from wells located in the vicinity of the Adaya Burial Site and at other sites in northern Iraq. The Adaya Burial Site is a high-risk dump site because a large volume of radioactive material and contaminated soil is located on an unsecure hillside above the village of Tall ar Ragrag. The uranium activities for the 16 water samples in northern Iraq are considered to be naturally occurring and do not indicate artificial (man-made) contamination. With one exception, the alpha spectrometry results for the 16 wells that were sampled in 2019 indicate that the water quality concerning the three uranium isotopes (Uranium-233/234, Uranium-235/236, and Uranium-238) was acceptable for potable purposes (drinking and cooking). However, Well 7 in Mosul had a Uranium-233/234 activity concentration that slightly exceeded the World Health Organization guidance level. Eight of the 16 wells are located in the villages of Tall ar Ragrag and Adaya and had naturally occurring uranium concentrations. Wells in the villages of Tall ar Ragrag and Adaya are located near the Adaya Burial Site and should be sampled on an annual schedule. The list of groundwater analytes should include metals, total uranium, isotopic uranium, gross alpha/beta, gamma spectroscopy, organic compounds, and standard water quality parameters. Our current understanding of the hydrogeologic setting in the vicinity of the Adaya Burial Site is solely based on villager's domestic wells, topographic maps, and satellite imagery. To better understand the hydrogeologic setting, a Groundwater Monitoring Program needs to be developed and should include the installation of twelve groundwater monitoring wells in the vicinity of Tall ar Ragrag and the Adaya Burial Site. Characterization of the limestone aquifer and overlying alluvium is needed. RPC should continue to support health assessments for the villagers in Tall ar Ragrag and Adaya. Collecting samples for surface water (storm water), airborne dust, vegetation, and washway sediment should be conducted on a routine basis. Human access to the Adaya Burial Site needs to be strictly limited. Livestock access on or near the burial site needs to be eliminated. The surface-water exposure pathway is likely a greater threat than the groundwater exposure pathway. Installation of a surface-water diversion or collection system is recommended in order to reduce the potential for humans and livestock to come in contact with contaminated water and sediment. To reduce exposure to villagers, groundwater treatment should be considered if elevated uranium or other contaminants are detected in drinking water. Installing water-treatment systems would likely be quicker to accomplish than remediation and excavation of the Adaya Burial Site. The known potential for human exposure to uranium and metals (such as arsenic, chromium, selenium, and strontium) at the Adaya Burial Site is serious. Additional characterization , mitigation, and remediation efforts should be given a high priority.

This recommendation document will provide international partners insight on physical protection systems (PPSs) for small modular reactors (SMRs). SMRs create many unique challenges for physical protection that must be addressed in design and implementation. This document will attempt to highlight possible challenges of SMRs and identify potential physical protection recommendations to mitigate these challenges. These recommendations are based on hypothetical SMR facilities and PPSs and their effectiveness against hypothetical adversaries.

To further understand the combustion characteristics and the reaction pathways of acyclic ethers, the oxidation of di-n-propyl ether (DPE) was investigated in a jet-stirred reactor (JSR) combined with a photoionization molecular-beam mass spectrometer. The experiments were carried out at near-atmospheric pressure (700 Torr) and over a temperature range of 425–850 K. Based on the experimental data and previous studies on ether oxidation, a new kinetic model was constructed and used to interpret the oxidation chemistry of DPE. In DPE oxidation, a high reactivity at low temperatures and two negative temperature coefficient (NTC) zones were observed. These behaviors are explained in this work by taking advantage of the obtained species information and the modeling analyses: the two NTC zones are caused by the competition of chain branching and termination reactions of the fuel itself and specific oxidation intermediates, respectively. Furthermore, the general requirements to have double-NTC behavior are discussed. A variety of crucial fuel-specific C6 species, such as ketohydroperoxides and diones, were detected in the species pool of DPE oxidation. Their formation pathways are illuminated based on rate-of-production (ROP) analyses. Propanal was identified as the most abundant small molecule intermediate, and its related reactions have an important impact on the oxidation process of DPE. Both acetic acid and propionic acid were detected in high concentrations. A new formation pathway of propionic acid is proposed and incorporated into the kinetic model to achieve a more accurate prediction for propionic acid mole fractions.

The code is made available on the open GitHub repository and is available to the general nuclear data community.

Single case comparisons between severe accident simulations can provide detailed insights into severe accident model behavior, however, they cannot offer insights into model uncertainty, sensitivity to uncertain parameters, or underlying model biases. In this analysis, the single case benchmark comparison of the MELCOR material interaction models for a station blackout (SBO) scenario of a boiling water reactor (BWR) using representative Fukushima Daiichi Unit 1 boundary conditions is expanded to include an uncertainty analysis. As part of this uncertainty analysis, 1200 simulations are performed for each material interaction model (2400 total), with random sampling of 14 uncertain MELCOR input parameters. Input parameters are selected for their impact on models representing core degradation processes. These include candling, fuel rod failure, debris quenching and dryout. The analysis performed here is not a traditional “best-estimate” uncertainty analysis that uses best-estimate parameters or identifies best-estimate figure of merit distributions. Instead, it is an exploratory uncertainty analysis that identifies and interrogates underlying model form biases of the two material interaction models (eutectics and interactive materials models). Uniform distributions are applied to all uncertain parameters to ensure coverage of the model parameter uncertainty space. Key findings from this study include underlying model form biases exhibited by material interaction models, and notable differences in accident progression outcomes between the material interaction models. This uncertainty study extends and confirms the conclusions from the first part of this study, which compared the impact of material interaction modeling on simulation of a short-term station blackout scenario with representative Fukushima Daiichi Unit I boundary conditions. In particular, this study confirms that the eutectics model generally exhibits accelerated degradation and failure of fuel components, the core plate, and the lower head. The eutectics model also has a tendency to exhibit a greater degree of core degradation, greater debris mass formation, and larger debris mass ejection. Finally, the eutectics model exhibits higher maximum temperatures for fuel, cladding, particulate debris, oxidic molten pool, and metallic molten pool components than the interactive materials model; interactive materials model simulations exhibit a soft “limitation” on maximum temperatures that is related to the temperature at which material relocation occurs.

This work, building on previous efforts, develops a suite of new graph neural network machine learning architectures that generate data-driven prolongators for use in Algebraic Multigrid (AMG). Algebraic Multigrid is a powerful and common technique for solving large, sparse linear systems. Its effectiveness is problem dependent and heavily depends on the choice of the prolongation operator, which interpolates the coarse mesh results onto a finer mesh. Previous work has used recent developments in graph neural networks to learn a prolongation operator from a given coefficient matrix. In this paper, we expand on previous work by exploring architectural enhancements of graph neural networks. A new method for generating a training set is developed which more closely aligns to the test set. Asymptotic error reduction factors are compared on a test suite of 3-dimensional Poisson problems with varying degrees of element stretching. Results show modest improvements in asymptotic error factor over both commonly chosen baselines and learning methods from previous work.

The Dakota toolkit provides a flexible and extensible interface between simulation codes and iterative analysis methods. Dakota contains algorithms for optimization with gradient and nongradient-based methods; uncertainty quantification with sampling, reliability, and stochastic expansion methods; parameter estimation with nonlinear least squares methods; and sensitivity/variance analysis with design of experiments and parameter study methods. These capabilities may be used on their own or as components within advanced strategies such as surrogate-based optimization, mixed integer nonlinear programming, or optimization under uncertainty. By employing object-oriented design to implement abstractions of the key components required for iterative systems analyses, the Dakota toolkit provides a flexible and extensible problem-solving environment for design and performance analysis of computational models on high performance computers. This report serves as a user's manual for the Dakota software and provides capability overviews and procedures for software execution, as well as a variety of example studies.

The Exascale Computing Project (ECP) is invested in co-design to assure that key applications are ready for exascale computing. Within ECP, the Co-design Center for Particle Applications (CoPA) is addressing challenges faced by particle-based applications across four “sub-motifs”: short-range particle–particle interactions (e.g., those which often dominate molecular dynamics (MD) and smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) methods), long-range particle–particle interactions (e.g., electrostatic MD and gravitational N-body), particle-in-cell (PIC) methods, and linear-scaling electronic structure and quantum molecular dynamics (QMD) algorithms. Our crosscutting co-designed technologies fall into two categories: proxy applications (or “apps”) and libraries. Proxy apps are vehicles used to evaluate the viability of incorporating various types of algorithms, data structures, and architecture-specific optimizations and the associated trade-offs; examples include ExaMiniMD, CabanaMD, CabanaPIC, and ExaSP2. Libraries are modular instantiations that multiple applications can utilize or be built upon; CoPA has developed the Cabana particle library, PROGRESS/BML libraries for QMD, and the SWFFT and fftMPI parallel FFT libraries. Success is measured by identifiable “lessons learned” that are translated either directly into parent production application codes or into libraries, with demonstrated performance and/or productivity improvement. The libraries and their use in CoPA’s ECP application partner codes are also addressed.

Remote communities are increasingly adopting renewable energy, such as wind, as they transition away from diesel energy generation. It is important to understand the benefits and costs of wind energy to isolated systems so that decision‐makers can optimize their choices in these com-munities. There are few examples of valuation of wind energy as a distributed resource and numer-ous differences in valuation approaches, especially in the inclusion of environmental and economic impacts. We apply a distributed wind valuation framework to calculate the benefits and costs of wind in St. Mary’s, Alaska, to the local electric cooperative and to society, finding that the project does not have a favorable benefit‐to‐cost ratio unless societal benefits are included, in which case the benefit‐to‐cost ratio is nearly double. Government funding is important to reducing the initial capital expenditures of this wind project and will likely be the case for projects with similar charac-teristics. Additional fuel savings benefits are potentially possible for this project through technolog-ical additions such as energy storage and advanced controls.

Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is a viable, cleaner alternative to traditional diesel fuel used in busses and other heavy-duty vehicles and could play a role in helping the US meet its lower emission goals. While the LPG industry has focused efforts on developing vehicles and fueling infrastructure, we must also establish safe parameters for maintenance facilities which are servicing LPG fueled vehicles. Current safety standards aid in the design of maintenance facilities, but additional quantitative analysis is needed to prove safeguards are adequate and suggest improvements where needed. In this report we aim to quantify the amount of flammable mass associated with propane releases from vehicle mounted fuel vessels within enclosed garages. Furthermore, we seek to qualify harm mitigation with variable ventilations and facility layout. To accomplish this we leverage validated computational resources at Sandia National Laboratories to simulate various release scenarios representative of real world vehicles and maintenance facilities. Flow solvers are used to predict the dynamics of fuel systems as well as the evolution of propane during release events. From our simulated results we observe that both inflow and outflow ventilation locations play a critical role in reducing flammable cloud size and potential overpressure values during a possible combustion event.

In this article, we derive the vacuum electric fields within specific cylindrically symmetric magnetically insulated transmission lines (MITLs) in the limit of an infinite speed of light for an arbitrary time-dependent current. We focus our attention on two types of MITLs: the radial MITL and a spherically curved MITL. We then simulate the motion of charged particles, such as electrons, present in these MITLs due to the vacuum fields. In general, the motion of charged particles due to the vacuum fields is highly nonlinear since the fields are nonlinear functions of spatial coordinates and depend on an arbitrary time-dependent current drive. Using guiding center theory, however, one can describe the gross particle kinetics using a combination of $\textbf {E} \times \textbf {B}$ and $\nabla B$ drifts. In addition, we compare our approximate inner MITL field models and particle kinetics with those from a fully electromagnetic simulation code. We find that the agreement between the approximate model and the electromagnetic simulations is excellent.

This report documents an experimental program designed to investigate High Energy Arcing Fault (HEAF) phenomena for medium voltage electrical switchgear containing aluminum conductors. This report covers full-scale laboratory experiments using representative nuclear power plant (NPP) three-phase electrical equipment. Electrical, thermal, and pressure data were recorded for each experiment and documented in this report. This report covers four of the fourteen planned medium voltage electrical enclosure experiments. Subsequent reports will document the additional experiments performed in the future. The experiments were performed at KEMA Labs located in Chalfont, Pennsylvania. The experimental design, setup, and execution were completed by staff from the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) and KEMA. In addition, representatives from the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) observed some of the experimental setups and execution. The HEAF experiments were performed on four near-identical units of General Electric metal-clad medium voltage switchgear. The three-phase arcing fault was initiated on the primary cable connection bus. All four experiments used the same system voltage (6.9 kV) but varied the current and duration. Real-time electrical operating conditions, including voltage, current and frequency, were measured during the experiments. Heat fluxes and incident energies were measured with plate thermometers and slug calorimeters at various locations around the electrical enclosures. Internal enclosure pressures were measured during the experiments. The experiments were documented with normal and high-speed videography, infrared imaging, and photography. Insights from the experimental series included timing information related to enclosure breach, event progression, mass loss measurements for electrodes and steel enclosures, peak pressure rise, particle analysis, along with visual and thermal imaging data to better understand and characterize the hazard. These results will be used in subsequent efforts to advance the state of knowledge related to HEAF.

The peridynamic theory of solid mechanics is applied to modeling the deformation and fracture of micrometer-sized particles made of organic crystalline material. A new peridynamic material model is proposed to reproduce the elastic–plastic response, creep, and fracture that are observed in experiments. The model is implemented in a three-dimensional, meshless Lagrangian simulation code. In the small deformation, elastic regime, the model agrees well with classical Hertzian contact analysis for a sphere compressed between rigid plates. Under higher load, material and geometrical nonlinearity is predicted, leading to fracture. The material parameters for the energetic material CL-20 are evaluated from nanoindentation test data on the cyclic compression and failure of micrometer-sized grains.

Simultaneous data of the quasi-static compaction and electrical conductivity of porous, binary powder mixtures have been collected as a function of bulk density. The powder mixtures consist of a metal conductor, either titanium or iron, an insulator, and pores filled with ambient air. The data show a dependency of the conductivity in terms of relative bulk density and metal volume fraction on conductor type and conductor particle characteristics of size and shape. Finite element models using particle domains generated by discrete element method are used to simulate the bulk conductivity near its threshold while the general effective media equation is used to model the conductivity across the compression regime.

Calcium-silicate-hydrate (C–S–H) represents a key microstructural phase that governs the mechanical properties of concrete at a large scale. Defects in the C–S–H phase are also responsible for the poor ductility and low tensile strength of concrete. Manipulating the microstructure of C–S–H can lead to new cementitious materials with improved structural performance. This paper presents an experimental investigation aiming to characterize a new synthetic polymer-modified synthetic calcium-silicate-hydrate (C–S–H)/styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) binder. The new C–S–H/SBR binder is produced by calcining calcium carbonate and mixing this with fumed silica (SiO2), deionized water and SBR. Mechanical, physical, chemical and microstructural characterization was conducted to measure the properties of new hardened C–S–H binder. Results from the experimental investigation demonstrate the ability to engineer a new C–S–H binder with low elastic modulus and improved toughness and bond strength by controlling the SBR content and method of C–S–H synthesis. The new binder suggests the possible development of a new family of low-modulus silica-polymer binders that might fit many engineering applications such as cementing oil and gas wells.

Atomically precise ultradoping of silicon is possible with atomic resists, area-selective surface chemistry, and a limited set of hydride and halide precursor molecules, in a process known as atomic precision advanced manufacturing (APAM). It is desirable to expand this set of precursors to include dopants with organic functional groups and here we consider aluminium alkyls, to expand the applicability of APAM. We explore the impurity content and selectivity that results from using trimethyl aluminium and triethyl aluminium precursors on Si(001) to ultradope with aluminium through a hydrogen mask. Comparison of the methylated and ethylated precursors helps us understand the impact of hydrocarbon ligand selection on incorporation surface chemistry. Combining scanning tunneling microscopy and density functional theory calculations, we assess the limitations of both classes of precursor and extract general principles relevant to each.

The myriad detectors and instruments now available for materials characterization provide researchers with an ever-growing suite of tools to probe material behavior. Progress in the development of instrumentation and workflows that enable the collection, and leverage the potential, of various data modalities have provided novel insights into material behavior. Using data across multiple length scales, or performing complementary analyses of in situ and ex situ data, can help reveal a more complete picture of dynamic processes or material structure. However, the accurate combination, or fusion, of these disparate data modalities presents new challenges. Differences in resolution, as well as the varying length scales at which physical phenomena are exploited to generate these data, necessitate novel approaches to accurately interpret and combine these data. Furthermore, the papers within this special topic focus on the collection and fusion of multimodal data to better understand structural materials. From new frameworks and workflows for data segmentation and analysis, process monitoring, enhancing simulations, or interrogating mechanical response, these papers reveal the potential benefits of utilizing multimodal data.

The complexity and associated uncertainties involved with atmospheric-turbine-wake interactions produce challenges for accurate wind farm predictions of generator power and other important quantities of interest (QoIs), even with state-of-the-art high-fidelity atmospheric and turbine models. A comprehensive computational study was undertaken with consideration of simulation methodology, parameter selection, and mesh refinement on atmospheric, turbine, and wake QoIs to identify capability gaps in the validation process. For neutral atmospheric boundary layer conditions, the massively parallel large eddy simulation (LES) code Nalu-Wind was used to produce high-fidelity computations for experimental validation using high-quality meteorological, turbine, and wake measurement data collected at the Department of Energy/Sandia National Laboratories Scaled Wind Farm Technology (SWiFT) facility located at Texas Tech University's National Wind Institute. The wake analysis showed the simulated lidar model implemented in Nalu-Wind was successful at capturing wake profile trends observed in the experimental lidar data.

A linear performance drop is generally assumed during the photovoltaic (PV) lifetime. However, operational data demonstrate that the PV module degradation rate (Rd) is often nonlinear, which, if neglected, may increase the financial uncertainty. Although nonlinear behavior has been the subject of numerous publications, it was only recently that statistical models able to detect change-points and extract multiple Rd values from PV performance time-series were introduced. A comparative analysis of six open-source libraries, which can detect change-points and calculate nonlinear Rd, is presented in this article. Since the real Rd and change-point locations are unknown in field data, 960 synthetic datasets from six locations and two PV module technologies have been generated using different aggregation and normalization decisions and nonlinear degradation rate patterns. The results demonstrated that coarser temporal aggregation (i.e., monthly vs. weekly), temperature correction, and both PV module technologies and climates with lower seasonality can benefit the change-point detection and Rd extraction. This also raises a concern that statistical models typically deployed for Rd analysis may be highly climatic-and technology-dependent. The comparative analysis of the six approaches demonstrated median mean absolute errors (MAE) ranging from 0.06 to 0.26%/year, given a maximum absolute Rd of 2.9%/year. The median MAE in change-point position detection varied from 3.5 months to 6 years.

Formation of zeolite supported Ag0 clusters depends on a combination of thermodynamically stable atomic configurations, charge balance considerations, and mobility of species on the surface and within pores. Periodic density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to evaluate how the location of Al in the mordenite (MOR) framework and humidity control Ag0 nanocluster formation. Four Al framework sites were studied (T1-T4) and the Al positions in the framework were identified by the shifts in the differential Al⋯Al pair distribution function (PDF). Furthermore, structural information about the Ag0 nanoclusters, such as dangling bonds, can be identified by Ag⋯Ag PDF data. For Ag0 formation in vacuum MOR structures with a Si:Al ratio of 5:1 with Al in the T1 position resulted in the most framework flexibility and the lowest Ag0 nanocluster charge, indicating the best result for formation of charge neutral nanoclusters. When water is present, Al in the T3 and T4 positions results in the formation of the smallest average Ag0 nanoclusters plus greater expansion of the O-T-O bond angle than in vacuum, indicating easier diffusion of the Ag0 nanoclusters to the surface. The presence of Al in 4-membered rings and in pairs indicates favorable MOR structures for formation of single Ag atoms, despite the existence of synthesis challenges. Therefore, Al in the T2 position is the least favorable for Ag0 nanocluster formation in both vacuum and in the presence of water. Al in the T1, T3, and T4 positions provides beneficial effects through framework flexibility and changes in nanocluster size or charge that can be leveraged for design of zeolites for formation of metallic nanoclusters.

To support the increasing demands for efficient deep neural network processing, accelerators based on analog in-memory computation of matrix multiplication have recently gained significant attention for reducing the energy of neural network inference. However, analog processing within memory arrays must contend with the issue of parasitic voltage drops across the metal interconnects, which distort the results of the computation and limit the array size. This work analyzes how parasitic resistance affects the end-to-end inference accuracy of state-of-the-art convolutional neural networks, and comprehensively studies how various design decisions at the device, circuit, architecture, and algorithm levels affect the system's sensitivity to parasitic resistance effects. A set of guidelines are provided for how to design analog accelerator hardware that is intrinsically robust to parasitic resistance, without any explicit compensation or re-training of the network parameters.

Rapid growth in data, computational methods, and computing power is driving a remarkable revolution in what variously is termed machine learning (ML), statistical learning, computational learning, and artificial intelligence. In addition to highly visible successes in machine-based natural language translation, playing the game Go, and self-driving cars, these new technologies also have profound implications for computational and experimental science and engineering, as well as for the exascale computing systems that the Department of Energy (DOE) is developing to support those disciplines. Not only do these learning technologies open up exciting opportunities for scientific discovery on exascale systems, they also appear poised to have important implications for the design and use of exascale computers themselves, including high-performance computing (HPC) for ML and ML for HPC. The overarching goal of the ExaLearn co-design project is to provide exascale ML software for use by Exascale Computing Project (ECP) applications, other ECP co-design centers, and DOE experimental facilities and leadership class computing facilities.
