A hybrid Monte Carlo-deterministic second moment method with efficient variance reduction

In this work, we present a hybrid method that combines Monte Carlo with deterministic finite element methods to solve a linear Boltzmann transport equation. Our hybrid method runs orders of magnitude faster than Monte Carlo, without sacrificing accuracy, for a proxy problem from radiative transfer that contains both optically-thick and optically-thin material. We believe that this is the first demonstration of a hybrid Second Moment Method in more than one spatial dimension, the first to consider more than one material, and the first to use variance reduction. Our variance reduction approach arises from an asymptotic analysis in which we show that the magnitude of the scattering source grows without bound. We transform the problem to compute the deviation of the radiation intensity from isotropy. The magnitude of the source in the transformed problem is bounded, and the quality of the hybrid method solution is dramatically improved by a substantial reduction in the variance.

Meshfree simulation and prediction of recrystallized grain size in friction stir processed 316L stainless steel

Friction stir processing (FSP) is a promising solid-phase microstructural modification technique that can repair and enhance damaged stainless steel surfaces exposed to harsh environments. The quality of the repaired material is closely correlated to the recrystallized grain size in the stir zone (SZ), which is influenced by the thermomechanical conditions dictated by FSP process parameters. Thus, establishing a reliable relationship between these parameters and recrystallized grain size in the SZ is crucial for optimizing repair quality. However, existing experimental approaches often rely on indirect temperatures measured far from the SZ, along with rough strain rate estimations, which are imprecise and time-consuming. Meanwhile, existing mesh-based modeling methods usually face numerical challenges when dealing with the large material deformations inherent in FSP. Here, to address these issues, this study introduces a meshfree process model for FSP based on the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method, aimed at predicting process conditions under different parameters. The model is validated using experimental data from 11 combinations of tool traverse and rotation speeds on 316 L stainless steel. Correlations between process parameters, material flow, temperature, strain, strain rate, and recrystallized grain size are revealed through SPH simulations and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) imaging. The results show that in situ SZ temperatures range from 1071 to 1322°C, which exceed the tool temperature by over 300°C. Furthermore, SZ temperature, strain rate, and grain size increase monotonically with higher tool temperature and faster traverse speed. A relationship is then established between the model-predicted Zener-Hollomon parameter and the recrystallized grain size based on EBSD data, expressed as ln(d) = -0.364 ln(Z) + 14.673. Finally, this relationship exhibits satisfactory accuracy with errors of less than 26.9% in predicting grain sizes at various SZ locations, which offers valuable insights for optimizing FSP repair processes for 316 L stainless steel.

X-ray observation of individual Ti-6Al-4V spherical powder particle impact in an in-situ operando laser directed energy deposition system

Understanding the particle capture mechanism in the laser directed energy deposition additive manufacturing process provides a foundation for improving productivity and reducing material loss. Capturing this phenomenon is challenging due to its highly transient time interval. To analyze the impact behavior of spherical Ti-6Al-4V powder, a custom laser directed energy deposition system was designed to control the deposition of individual particles. Synchrotron X-ray imaging at 24 kHz monitored the impact dynamics of individual powder particles. A multi-physics model based on the Smoothed-Particle Hydrodynamics scheme supported the analysis by providing the temperature and velocity fields of the molten pool. Results revealed that in laser directed energy deposition, surface tension forces dominated the powder–molten pool interaction. Hydrophobic Ti-6Al-4V powder particles had an equilibrium contact angle of 121 degrees with their molten state. Furthermore, Ti-6Al-4V powder particles required a high impact velocity (6 to 12 m/s) to transition from oscillation to submergence behavior. Lastly, oscillating powder particles that impacted near the location of the laser beam exhibited faster melting, highlighting the contribution of the laser beam to the melting mechanism. This work lays the foundation for investigations of powder particle impact in laser directed deposition and supports the validation of numerical models of powder–molten pool interactions.

First-principles investigation of lanthanides diffusion in HCP zirconium via vacancy-mediated transport

The diffusion of lanthanide fission products plays an important role in the growth of the fuel-cladding chemical interaction (FCCI) region in metallic fuels. The use of a Zr interdiffusion barrier may mitigate the transport of lanthanides from the fuel to the cladding, but the efficacy of such a liner is not yet known. In this paper, the stability and vacancy-mediated diffusion of La, Ce, Pr, and Nd in hexagonal close-packed (HCP) Zr is investigated via density functional theory (DFT) calculations and self-consistent mean field (SCMF) analysis. DFT is used to calculate the formation, binding, and migration energies of vacancies and vacancy-solute pairs. The DFT energetics are used in the KineCluE code to calculate the Onsager transport coefficients. La is found to be the fastest diffusing species in HCP Zr and experiences an almost isotropic diffusion behavior. The other three species (Ce, Pr, and Nd) demonstrate anisotropic diffusion where the diffusion in the basal planes is significantly faster than that along the c-axis. Further, the calculated lanthanide diffusivities in HCP Zr are fitted to an Arrhenius relation and the activation energies and prefactors are reported for the first time. Furthermore, the vacancy drag and the segregation tendencies were analyzed using the calculated off-diagonal transport coefficients. According to our vacancy-mediated diffusion model, lanthanides are expected to be enriched at vacancy sinks at low temperatures, while at high temperatures, lanthanides are depleted at sinks and will preferably diffuse into the bulk. The enrichment/depletion transition temperature depends on the diffusion direction (basal or axial) and hence will be controlled by the grain texture and orientation.

Dynamic data-driven multiscale modeling for predicting the degradation of a 316L stainless steel nuclear cladding material

Here, we have developed a long short-term memory stacked ensemble (LSTM-SE) surrogate modeling approach that can provide rapid predictions of microstructural evolution and the resultant mechanical properties of American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) 316L series stainless steel (316LSS) fuel cladding under conditions of varying temperature and radiation dose rate. To acquire training data, we developed and implemented a kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) model to simulate precipitation kinetics of M 23 C 6 , γ', and G phases within SS316L cladding. Experimentally reported precipitation kinetics of SS316L in literature were linked to the kinetic parameters of the simulated precipitation in our KMC model. The model was then used to simulate microstructure evolution under synthetically generated treatments of varying temperature and radiation dose rate, for periods of up to 3000 hours. Changes in volume fraction, number density, and particle size of precipitates were recorded, and particle area fractions were correlated using statistical methods to develop the surrogate model. Simultaneously, the mechanical properties of the simulated microstructures were evaluated using microstructure-based finite element method (FEM) analysis to determine the elastic modulus, yield stress, ultimate tensile strength, and elongation to failure of the aged microstructures. Using this approach, our surrogate model can predict precipitation behavior within 0.25% volume fraction and mechanical properties within 6% relative error from the values predicted by the KMC and FEM models using 50 training simulations as input. The trained recurrent neural network-based model can return estimations of precipitation kinetics and mechanical properties ~1000 times faster than the physics-based codes. This work demonstrates, as a proof of concept, that reactor material service lifetimes under variable service conditions can be predicted for a statistics-based model from a practicably obtainable dataset.

In-situ irradiation of uranium carbide

Uranium carbide (UC) is a leading candidate fuel for Generation IV reactors due to its high uranium density and thermal conductivity. However, its irradiation performance—particularly gas bubble swelling and defect dynamics—remains poorly characterized. Using in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM), we irradiated UC with 300 keV Xe + and 1 MeV Kr 2+ ions at temperatures up to 900 °C to quantify swelling behavior and dislocation loop evolution. The swelling remained below 0.6 % across all temperatures, suggesting the dimensional stability of UC under irradiation at these temperatures. Dislocation loops grew faster in UC than in UO 2 or UN, correlating with its lower homologous temperature. Notably, nanograin structures emerged in thin regions of the lamellar, mirroring phenomena previously observed in UO 2 and ZrC. These results address critical knowledge gaps in the radiation tolerance of UC and provide insight into its suitability for advanced reactor systems.

Conformal high-entropy oxide coatings enable fast and durable surface oxygen reactions

Developing active and durable air electrodes for efficient oxygen reactions is challenging for protonic ceramic cells (PCCs), especially at temperatures below 550°C. Here, in this study, we report a rationally designed conformal coating with a high-entropy PrNi 0.2 Mn 0.2 Co 0.2 Fe 0.2 Cu 0.2 O 3−δ (PNMCFC) perovskite structure on the surface of a state-of-the-art PrBaCo 2 O 5+δ (PBC) air electrode. The formed hybrid air electrode (PNMCFC-PBC) shows faster surface oxygen kinetics and a more stable phase structure in high-humidity air than the bare PBC electrode. Further density functional theory calculations suggest that the conformal coating mitigates Ba segregation at the interface and improves oxygen-related reactions, enhancing overall stability and electrocatalytic performance. The cells with the developed hybrid electrodes show encouraging electrochemical performance at 550°C: a polarization resistance of 0.72 Ω cm 2 , a peak power density of 1.30 W cm −2 , an electrolysis current density of −1.36 A cm −2 at 1.3 V, and reasonable operating stabilities (∼200 h at 550°C).

Electrochemical Reactions Under Reverse Bias Create Additional Mobile Ions That Enable Hole Tunneling in Metal Halide Perovskite Diodes

Gradual reverse-bias breakdown in metal-halide perovskite diodes and solar cells is thought to originate from hole tunneling through steep bands in an ionic depletion region near the electron-transport layer after positively charged iodine vacancies accumulate near the hole-transport layer (HTL). However, typical reported mobile-ion concentrations near 1 x 10^17 cm-3 are too small to quantitatively explain significant tunneling-current densities and (Zener) breakdown observed near -5 V. Here, we show that inferred mobile-ion concentrations increase by more than 100x, to over 1 x 10^18cm-3 , within just 3 min of reverse bias at -6.0 V in p-i-n perovskite diodes. We attribute this increase to iodide oxidation and coupled iodine vacancy creation that must be balanced by reduction reactions near the HTL. Sub-optimal HTL coverage leads to direct contact between the transparent conducting electrode and perovskite, facilitates reduction events, enables the creation of even larger inferred mobile-ion concentrations (~1 x 10^19cm-3 ), and leads to faster degradation under reverse bias. This explains previous work that showed increased breakdown voltages and improved reverse-bias stability by implementing thick, uniform HTLs.

GraMeR: Gra ph Me ta R einforcement learning for multi-objective influence maximization

Influence maximization (IM) is a combinatorial problem of identifying a subset of seed nodes in a network (graph), which when activated, provide a maximal spread of influence in the network for a given diffusion model and a budget for seed set size. IM has numerous applications such as viral marketing, epidemic control, sensor placement and other network-related tasks. However, its practical uses are limited due to the computational complexity of current algorithms. Recently, deep reinforcement learning has been leveraged to solve IM in order to ease the computational burden. However, there are serious limitations in current approaches, including narrow IM formulation that only consider influence via spread and ignore self-activation, low scalability to large graphs, and lack of generalizability across graph families leading to a large running time for every test network. In this work, we address these limitations through a unique approach that involves: (1) Formulating a generic IM problem as a Markov decision process that handles both intrinsic and influence activations; (2)incorporating generalizability via meta-learning across graph families. There are previous works that combine deep reinforcement learning with graph neural network, but this work solves a more realistic IM problem and incorporates generalizability across graphs via meta reinforcement learning. Extensive experiments are carried out in various standard networks to validate performance of the proposed Graph Meta Reinforcement learning (GraMeR) framework. Finally, the results indicate that GraMeR is multiple orders faster and generic than conventional approaches when applied on small to medium scale graphs.

Exploring thermal runaway propagation in Li-ion batteries through high-speed X-ray imaging and thermal analysis: Impact of cell chemistry and electrical connections

Battery safety design is important to consider from the individual Li-ion cell to the level of the macro-system. On the macro-level, failure in one single cell can lead to propagation of the thermal runaway and rapidly set a whole battery pack on fire. Factors that can impact the propagation outcome, such as cell model/chemistry and electrical connection are here investigated using a combination of measurements. Several abusive tests were conducted, combining two different cell models (Molicel P42A and LG M50, both 21700s) in series and parallel connections (16 tests per configuration). Overall, a propagation outcome of 56% was measured from the 32 conducted tests, a minimum temperature of 150 °C was required to initiate propagation, and the fastest propagation occurred in 123 s. Temperature measurements were higher in series connected cells, initiating the discussion of cell chemistry and internal resistance on this effect. The difference in current-flow during thermal runaway in series and parallel connections, and how this can affect the temperature evolution is further discussed. Spatio-temporal mapping of X-ray radiography allowed us to derive the speed of thermal runaway evolution inside the battery and has shown that series connected cells, in particular P42A, occur faster. It was further observed that deviant sidewall behaviors such as temperature-induced breaches and pressure-induced ruptures occurred in P42As only respective nail-penetrated cells only.

Identifying electrochemical processes by distribution of relaxation times in proton exchange membrane electrolyzers

Distribution of relaxation time (DRT) is used to interpret electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) for proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolyzers, with an attempt to separate overlapped relaxation processes in Nyquist plots. By varying operating conditions and catalyst loadings, four main relaxation peaks arising from EIS can be identified and successfully separated from low to high frequencies as (P1) mass transport, (P2) oxygen evolution reaction kinetics, (P3) reaction kinetics (with faster time constant than P2), and (P4) ionic transport. Here, the shape, height, and frequency of the DRT peaks change with different membrane electrode assembly (MEA) configurations. Electron microscopy reveals distinct features from the cross-sectioned MEAs which verify critical DRT results in that increasing the iridium (Ir)-anode loading from 0.2 mgIr/cm 2 to 1.5 mgIr/cm 2 reduces kinetic losses due to higher site-access; a thick and compacted anode, however, also triggers higher ohmic resistances from membrane/catalyst layer hydration and increases transport losses due to longer ionomer pathways. DRT provides higher resolution to EIS for deconvoluting processes with different relaxation times and the quantification of DRT peaks improves the accounting of total losses from each process.

Superior electrochemical performance and reduced heat generation in 3D printed vs. 2D tape-casted NMC622 electrodes

This study compares the charge storage mechanisms, thermodynamics behavior, ion transport, and heat generation in NMC622 electrodes fabricated using a novel 3D printing process and the conventional 2D tape casting process. First, potentiometric entropy measurements revealed that the charge storage mechanisms for both types of electrodes consisted of lithium deintercalation in a homogeneous solid solution of NMC622 followed by a transition from a hexagonal (H1) phase to another hexagonal (H2) phase through a monoclinic (M) phase. Both types of electrodes had similar thermodynamics behavior with overlapping entropic potential profiles. Furthermore, operando isothermal calorimetry at high C-rates indicated that the 3D printed electrodes featured larger specific capacity and better rate performance than the 2D tape-casted electrodes. The better performance of 3D printed electrodes was attributed to their larger electrode/electrolyte interfacial surface area and electrical conductivity as well as their faster lithium ion transport. As a result, the instantaneous heat generation rates were smaller in 3D printed electrodes than in 2D tape-casted electrodes, thus resulting in lower overall specific electrical energy and thermal energy dissipation per unit charge stored. Overall, additive manufacturing techniques offer great potential in producing electrodes with superior electrochemical performance and reduced heat generation for fast charging batteries.

Emulation of radiation transport in 3D stochastic media using 1D planar Monte Carlo stochastic media radiation transport algorithms

A subset of stochastic media radiation transport problems involves those in which radiation is incident on a thin slab of stochastic material. Particle tracking in 3D for such problems is expensive, and 1D planar models lack accuracy because they only allow the material to change in one dimension. Therefore, we propose dimensional emulation, which through a slight modification allows existing 1D planar geometry stochastic media radiation transport models to reproduce results from the equivalent 3D models by allowing the material to change in all three dimensions, reproducing the fidelity of the 3D model for the low computational cost of the 1D planar model. In this work, we apply dimensional emulation to three Monte Carlo stochastic media radiation transport models: Chord Length Sampling (CLS), the Local Realization Preserving method (LRP), and a variant of Conditional Point Sampling (CoPS). For a common Markovian benchmark set, the 3D emulation variants of these algorithms are numerically verified to reproduce the results of the 3D variants within statistics while running 1.3 to 2 times faster in the implementation within Sandia National Laboratories open-source research code PlaybookMC. The 3D emulation variants are also shown to yield a 72%–92% reduction in error for the thin slab problems in comparison to the 1D benchmark. As a result, the 3D emulation variant of CLS and CoPS-1 are shown to reproduce 3D CLS results that were used to approximate results for a 3D spherical inclusion geometry benchmark set.

Freestream turbulence effects on unsteady wind turbine loads and wakes: An IDDES study

We investigate numerically the effects of freestream turbulence on the unsteady aerodynamics and wakes of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory Phase VI wind turbine rotor for increasing wind speed. Turbulence is modeled using the Improved Delayed Detached-Eddy Simulation (IDDES) method. As a first step, a detailed mesh resolution study is conducted with the decaying freestream turbulence model at turbulence intensity of 0.5%. Our blade-resolved IDDES simulations show that grid-independent average torque and thrust results can be achieved with relatively coarse meshes, whereas dramatically higher mesh resolution is required for grid-independent results for power spectral densities of thrust force, especially in the deep-stall regime. Comparing the loads with the Shear-Stress Transport model demonstrates the superiority of IDDES in predicting massively separated flows. The aerodynamic performance and wake predictions with the decaying freestream turbulence model are compared with the synthetic freestream turbulence model. Both models predict nearly the same loads, spectral energy content, and wake characteristics. The properties of both the near- and far-wake regions are then examined. Furthermore, we show that separated boundary layers accelerate turbulent mixing and entrainment of the external flow, which results in faster wake recovery. The effect of increasing turbulence intensity to 6% is investigated using the synthetic freestream turbulence model. In contrast with the fully attached boundary layer, higher freestream turbulence in deep stall does not significantly affect the loads and vortex-shedding characteristics. However, the turbulent mixing in the wake is enhanced, which further hastens the recovery of the self-similar velocity profile. In general, increasing the wind speed at high turbulence intensity shifts the recovery farther upstream and increases the wake width.

Rapid scalable plasma processing of thin-film Li–La–Zr–O solid-state electrolytes

Solid-state electrolytes, such as lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide (LLZO), show promise as technologies for next-generation high-energy-density batteries, but commercial development has been hindered by a lack of scalable processing methods. Current fabrication methods are costly or require long annealing steps to create dense films. We report an atmospheric pressure blown-arc nitrogen plasma jet process to rapidly form sub-micrometer-thick, dense amorphous LLZO (a-LLZO) films from sol-gel precursors. Films are processed in less than 2 min, an order of magnitude faster than what has previously been reported. We demonstrate 500-nm-thick a-LLZO films processed at 350°C with an ionic conductivity of 2 × 10 −6 S/cm at 30°C and 2 × 10 −3 S/cm at 100°C and a conductance of 19 S at 100°C, the highest conductance of any LLZO phase to date. Here, the films exhibit outstanding smooth surface morphology with low defectivity, advancing atmospheric plasma processing as a scalable processing method for solid-state electrolytes.

Cellulose acetate membranes exhibit exceptional monovalent to divalent cation selectivities

Salt transport properties of cellulose acetate membranes are reported for a series of chloride salts with mono- valent and divalent cations (LiCl, NaCl, MgCl 2 , CaCl 2 ). Measurements include salt permeability and sorption, with diffusivity values calculated from the permeability and sorption results. We report an exceptionally high LiCl/MgCl 2 selectivity of 750:1. Salts with similar valence (LiCl and NaCl; MgCl 2 and CaCl 2 ) have similar transport properties. The high monovalent/divalent selectivity arises from differences in both sorption and diffusion, with a LiCl/MgCl 2 solubility selectivity of about 11 and a diffusivity selectivity of about 70. Atomistic molecular dynamics simulations show that ions tend to reside in isolated clusters of water. Increasing ion charge strengthens ion–water interactions relative to ion–polymer interactions, explaining the reduced sorption of divalent ions. Diffusion of ions through the membrane occurs via hop-like motion between water clusters. Lithium diffuses faster than magnesium due to weaker ion–water coordination for lithium, which allows for greater mobility within water clusters and more frequent hopping. Altogether, our atomistic simulations suggest that the high LiCl/MgCl 2 selectivity is linked to cellulose acetate’s high water/salt selectivity and is a consequence of low water content and relatively uniform water distribution.

Supported ionic liquid membranes (SILMs) with exceptional selectivity and permeability for dilute CO 2 separations

Supported ionic liquid membranes (SILMs), containing phosphonium ionic liquids with aprotic N-heterocyclic anions (AHA ILs) in an inert inorganic support, were tested under both dry and humidified (40 % RH) mixed-gas conditions down to 420 ppm CO 2 in N 2 at 35 °C. In the dry case, the best performing IL, triethyl(octyl)phosphonium 4-bromopyrazolide ([P 2228 ][4-BrPyra]) exhibited mixed-gas CO 2 permeabilities and CO 2 /N 2 permeability selectivities as high as 26,800 barrer and 7,000, respectively. In the presence of humidity, the CO 2 permeability and CO 2 /N 2 selectivity increased to 49,100 barrer and 13,200, respectively, and these are the highest reported combination in the literature. Humidity amplifies CO 2 permeabilities and CO 2 /N 2 permeability selectivities through increases in CO 2 capacity due to bicarbonate formation and through faster mobility of the mobile carrier from decreased viscosity. Furthermore, N 2 permeability stayed roughly invariant in the presence of humidity, likely from competing effects of viscosity reduction and lower N 2 solubility.

Recrystallization driven softening and heating rate dependencies of FeCrAl nuclear fuel cladding during accident transients

A refined understanding of FeCrAl cladding behavior during rapid transients is critical for its potential deployment in light-water reactors. Current assessments focus on transient burst testing metrics such as balloon geometry, burst temperature, and hoop stress, often used as proxies for simpler conventional tensile properties. However, directly correlating isothermal tensile and creep data with accident transient scenarios remains a challenge, although it is essential for high fidelity model development. Recent modeling based on tensile tests up to 800 °C, conducted with both immediate loading and a 10-minute soak, showed that immediate loading better predicts experimental burst temperatures, indicating a thermal softening effect. Building upon this observation, the current study connects transient performance, microstructural evolution, and high-temperature tensile properties by leveraging results from C26M claddings burst tests performed at heating rates of 1–50 °C/s and hoop stresses from 25 to 100 MPa. At 25 MPa, rupture temperatures varied by only 6 °C, but at 100 MPa, the difference reached 116 °C, with faster heating yielding higher burst temperatures. Microstructural analysis identified recrystallization as the primary cause of heating rate-dependent softening, eliminating prior cold-working. In-situ thermomechanical data linked ballooning onset to localized instabilities, similar to ultimate tensile strength behavior in conventional tensile tests. High heating rates correlated with immediate loading tensile data, while lower rates matched soaked data. Furthermore, by linking burst performance to microstructural evolution and tensile properties, this work provides a foundation for more accurate modeling of FeCrAl claddings and potentially other Fe-based materials under accident conditions.
