pyKinML

SAND2024-13788O pyKinML software is used to train neural net potential energy surfaces for hydrocarbon molecules. The models study reaction kinetics but can be used for other purposes as well, such as running molecular dynamics simulation. Sandia National Laboratories is a multimission laboratory managed and operated by National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Honeywell International Inc., for the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration under contract DE-NA0003525.

KinCat v.1.0

SAND2024-02099O The software is designed to allow researchers to perform kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulations of catalytic reactions on a 2D lattice. The code is written efficiently to run on a variety of shared memory computing architectures (e.g. GPU, multi-core) and to natively express the full complexity of lateral interactions on reaction rates. The software allows researchers to perform KMC simulations of catalytic reactions on a 2D lattice. It uses parallel shared-memory computing architectures to reduce run-times and allows for simultaneous simulation of multiple independent runs.

Mathematical Foundations for Nonlocal Interface Problems: Multiscale Simulations of Heterogeneous Materials (Final LDRD Report)

Nonlocal models provide a much-needed predictive capability for important Sandia mission applications, ranging from fracture mechanics for nuclear components to subsurface flow for nuclear waste disposal, where traditional partial differential equations (PDEs) models fail to capture effects due to long-range forces at the microscale and mesoscale. However, utilization of this capability is seriously compromised by the lack of a rigorous nonlocal interface theory, required for both application and efficient solution of nonlocal models. To unlock the full potential of nonlocal modeling we developed a mathematically rigorous and physically consistent interface theory and demonstrate its scope in mission-relevant exemplar problems.
