Code Release for “Unlocking Extreme Space Weather through Advanced Modeling of Legacy Vela Spacecraft” ER

The software being developed for this project has two mains aims. First, a Bayesian Model Calibration (BMC) procedure is being developed to calibrate a spallation model that simulates protons hitting a spacecraft orbiting earth to real data. The procedure will be developed for general data (there is no data release requested as part of this code release). Second, an inverse physics modeling task is being undertaken to map the number of resulting neutrons observed from this process to the expected number of protons that hit the model. This second task is of statistical interest; to publish on it, the code will need to be open source.

Code for Experiment in Publication “Determining the dominant factors for carbon-1 mineralization in three-dimensional fracture networks”

We plan to release the code used to perform the experiment described in our recent publication, entitled “Determining the dominant factors for carbon-1 mineralization in three-dimensional fracture networks.” This code fits a joint emulator to data from several Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) simulations, performed using the open-source software DFNworks (https://dfnworks.lanl.gov/). All code to be released implements existing methods; there are no novel algorithms nor any major innovations to existing software.

Code for Experiment in Publication “Sensitivity Analysis in the Presence of Intrinsic Stochasticity for Discrete Fracture Network Simulations”

Following the Open Research requirements for AGU journals, we must release the code used to perform the experiment described in our recent publication, posted at (https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.04722). This code fits a joint emulator to data from a Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) simulation, performed using the open-source software DFNworks (https://dfnworks.lanl.gov/). All code to be released implements existing methods; there are no novel algorithms nor any major innovations to existing software.

DeBoinR: Density Boxplots in R

DeBoinR (Density Boxplots in R) takes in a set of Probability Density Functions (PDFs), calculates outliers based on several notions of distance, and visualizes these outliers via functional boxplots. This code is written as a stand-along R package with the hopes of eventually submitting it to CRAN. The package is written in generality; it would be useful to any researching looking to analyze a general ensemble of PDFs.
