Final Report Systems Level Analysis of the Function and Adaptive Responses of Methanogenic Consortia

The purpose of this research was to determine whether the syntrophic microbial associations that are central to the functioning of methane-producing terrestrial wetlands can be predictively modeled with coupled multi-species genome-scale metabolic models. Such models are important because methane is an important greenhouse gas and there is a need to predictively model how the methane-producing microbial communities will respond to environmental perturbations, such as global climate change. The research discovered that the most prodigious methane-producing microorganisms on earth participate in a previously unrecognized form of energy exchange. The methane-producers Methanosaeta and Methanosarcina forge biological electrical connections with other microbes in order to obtain electrons to reduce carbon dioxide to methane. This direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) was demonstrated in complex microbial communities as well as in defined co-cultures. For example, metatranscriptomic analysis of gene expression in both natural communities and defined co-cultures demonstrated that Methanosaeta species highly expressed genes for the enzymes for the reduction of carbon dioxide to methane. Furthermore, Methanosaeta’s electron-donating partners highly expressed genes for the biological electrical connections known as microbial nanowires. A series of studies involving transcriptomics, genome resequencing, and analysis of the metabolism of a series of strains with targeted gene deletions, further elucidated the mechanisms and energetics of DIET in methane-producing co-cultures, as well as in a co-culture of Geobacter metallireducens and Geobacter sulfurreducens, which provided a system for studying DIET with two genetically tractable partners. Genome-scale modeling of DIET in the G. metallireducens/G. sulfurreducens co-culture suggested that DIET provides more energy to the electron-donating partner that electron exchange via interspecies hydrogen transfer, but that the performance of DIET may be strongly influenced by environmental factors. These studies have significantly modified conceptual models for carbon and electron flow in methane-producing environments and have developed a computational framework for predictive modeling the influence of environmental perturbations on methane-producing microbial communities. The results have important implications for modeling the response of methane-producing microbial communities to climate change as well as for the bioenergy strategy of converting wastes and biomass to methane.

KAYENTA: Theory and User's Guide

The physical foundations and domain of applicability of the Kayenta constitutive model are presented along with descriptions of the source code and user instructions. Kayenta, which is an outgrowth of the Sandia GeoModel, includes features and fitting functions appropriate to a broad class of materials including rocks, rock-like engineered materials (such as concretes and ceramics), and metals. Fundamentally, Kayenta is a computational framework for generalized plasticity models. As such, it includes a yield surface, but the term (3z(Byield(3y (Bis generalized to include any form of inelastic material response (including microcrack growth and pore collapse) that can result in non-recovered strain upon removal of loads on a material element. Kayenta supports optional anisotropic elasticity associated with joint sets, as well as optional deformation-induced anisotropy through kinematic hardening (in which the initially isotropic yield surface is permitted to translate in deviatoric stress space to model Bauschinger effects). The governing equations are otherwise isotropic. Because Kayenta is a unification and generalization of simpler models, it can be run using as few as 2 parameters (for linear elasticity) to as many as 40 material and control parameters in the exceptionally rare case when all features are used. For high-strain-rate applications, Kayenta supports rate dependence through an overstress model. Isotropic damage is modeled through loss of stiffness and strength.

Stochastic Simulation of Complex Fluid Flows (Progress Report for period 07/01/2016 - 06/30/2018)

At a microscopic scale, fluids are composed of molecules whose positions and velocities are random. This gives rise to thermal fluctuations that span the whole range of scales from the microscopic through the mesoscopic, and even the macroscopic. The inclusion of thermal fluctuations is crucial in multi-scale models, which are an important theme in the research program of the DOE Office of Science, and in particular the ASCR Applied Mathematics program's priority focus area on modeling of complex systems involving processes that span vastly different time and/or length scales. In this five-year Early Career project, the PI Aleksandar Donev and collaborators developed computational algorithms for modeling complex fluid mixtures at small scales using a formulation based on fluctuating hydrodynamics. Novel computational methods were developed to model complex fluids with increasing physical complexity, starting from binary miscible and immiscible mixtures, going through multispecies non-reactive and reactive mixtures, and culminating with reactive electrolytes mixtures of neutral molecules and ions. In close collaboration with the group of John Bell at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, the methods were implemented in a scalable computational framework suitable for modern parallel supercomputers, and made publicly available on github. A number of physical examples in which giant nonequilibrium fluctuations are improtant were studied, with a special focus on instabilities at a liquid-liquid interface driven by gravity, diffusion, reactions, and/or electric fields. The methods and codes developed in this project are expected to enable other novel applications in the DOE Basic Energy Sciences program, and engineering sciences more broadly.

Shortening the Design and Certification Cycle for Additively Manufactured Materials by Improved Mesoscale Simulations and Validation Experiments: Fiscal Year 2019 Status Report.

This report outlines the fiscal year (FY) 2019 status of an ongoing multi-year effort to develop a general, microstructurally-aware, continuum-level model for representing the dynamic response of material with complex microstructures. This work has focused on accurately representing the response of both conventionally wrought processed and additively manufactured (AM) 304L stainless steel (SS) as a test case. Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, is an emerging technology capable of enabling shortened design and certification cycles for stockpile components through rapid prototyping. However, there is not an understanding of how the complex and unique microstructures of AM materials affect their mechanical response at high strain rates. To achieve our project goal, an upscaling technique was developed to bridge the gap between the microstructural and continuum scales to represent AM microstructures on a Finite Element (FE) mesh. This process involves the simulations of the additive process using the Sandia developed kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) code SPPARKS. These SPPARKS microstructures are characterized using clustering algorithms from machine learning and used to populate the quadrature points of a FE mesh. Additionally, a spall kinetic model (SKM) was developed to more accurately represent the dynamic failure of AM materials. Validation experiments were performed using both pulsed power machines and projectile launchers. These experiments have provided equation of state (EOS) and flow strength measurements of both wrought and AM 304L SS to above Mbar pressures. In some experiments, multi-point interferometry was used to quantify the variation is observed material response of the AM 304L SS. Analysis of these experiments is ongoing, but preliminary comparisons of our upscaling technique and SKM to experimental data were performed as a validation exercise. Moving forward, this project will advance and further validate our computational framework, using advanced theory and additional high-fidelity experiments.

Null Space Monte Carlo Evaluation of the Plateau to River Model

The Plateau to River Groundwater Model (P2R Model) is a groundwater flow and contaminant fate and transport (F&T) simulation model used to support remedial activities conducted by CH2M HILL Plateau Remediation Company at the Hanford Site in Washington State. Figure 1-1 illustrates the P2R Model extents, discretization, and boundary conditions. The P2R Model provides a computational framework to simulate the F&T of contaminants in groundwater associated with the 200-PO-1, 200-UP-1, 200-BP-5, and 200-ZP-1 Groundwater Operable Units (OUs) in the Hanford Site Central Plateau. In addition, the model includes adjacent areas and facilities (e.g., the State Approved Land Disposal Site). Intended and anticipated uses of the model include calculating water levels, hydraulic gradients, and groundwater flows throughout the model domain (encompassing the 200 West and 200 East Areas) for use in subsequent F&T calculations for contaminants of concern and developing scale-appropriate, telescopic-mesh refinement models for detailed evaluation of areas within the model domain where required. The overall objective of the modeling effort is to provide a basis for making informed remedial action decisions based on descriptions of current and expected future contaminant concentrations in groundwater at decision points within the OU boundaries. The objective for the model development phase is to create a common modeling platform that can be used for investigations of the Central Plateau groundwater OUs and areas downgradient toward the Columbia River. The P2R Model calibration to historical data observed at the Hanford Site is documented in CP-57037, Model Package Report for the Plateau to River Model Version 8.3. The purpose of this environmental calculation is to describe a null space Monte Carlo (NSMC) evaluation was conducted with the historic calibration of the P2R model. Use of numerical groundwater models is always accompanied with uncertainty in the results produced by a model because models are approximations of reality. Thus, by definition, lack the detail to fully represent observed behavior. Use of numerical techniques, such as a NSMC analysis, can help in identifying and quantifying the potential uncertainties associated with a numerical model such as the P2R Model. Use of the NSMC approach results in 100 groundwater flow models that are variants of the calibrated P2R Model. These variant models can be used to evaluate uncertainty in model predictions made by the calibrated P2R Model for other analyses. A secondary purpose of the environmental calculation is to establish these variant models for use with other applications.

Using Reinforcement Learning to Optimize Quantum Circuits in thePresence of Noise

Many quantum computing frameworks currently use noise aware algorithms for implementing quantum circuits which do not scale efficiently as the size of the hardware architecture increases. As we move towards devices which utilize more qubits, it becomes increasing more important to map quantum circuits in a way that uses resources efficiently as well as maximizes the reliability of the results of that circuit. However, as the hardware increases to the point where Quantum supremacy is attainable, it will infeasible for a brute-force algorithm to find the most optimal circuit layout for circuits of medium to large depth sizes. To this end, we will to rely on reinforcement learning (RL) as a method of building quantum circuits based on observations of the noise characteristics in its environment. In this work, we create a working reinforcement learning environment in which an agent is able to make action which will build the class of circuits which creates the GHZ state. In addition to this, we also get preliminary results of the performance of a Deep Q Neural Network, which initially does not perform as well as we believe it can. In the future, we want to improve the performance of the agent and potentially generalize this environment to more classes of circuits.

A Bezier Curve Informed Melt Pool Geometry to Model Additive Manufacturing Microstructures Using SPPARKS

Additive manufacturing is a transformative technology with the potential to manufacture designs which traditional subtractive machining methods cannot. Additive manufacturing offers fast builds at near final desired geometry; however, material properties and variability from part to part remain a challenge for certification and qualification of metallic components. AM induced metallic microstructures are spatially heterogeneous and highly process dependent. Engineering properties such as strength and toughness are significantly affected by microstructure morphologies resulting from the manufacturing process Linking process parameters to microstructures and ultimately to the dynamic response of AM materials is critical to certifying and qualifying AM built parts and components and improving the performance of AM materials. The AM fabrication process is characterized by building parts layer by layer using a selective laser melt process guided by a computer. A laser selectively scans and melts metal according to a designated geometry. As the laser scans, metal melts, fuses, and solidifies forming the final geometry in a layerwise fashion. As the laser heat source moves away, the metal cools and solidifies forming metallic microstructures. This work describes a microstructure modeling application implemented in the SPPARKS kinetic Monte Carlo computational framework for simulating the resulting microstructures. The application uses Bzier curves and surfaces to model the melt pool surface and spatial temperature profile induced by moving the laser heat source; it simulates the melting and fusing of metal at the laser hot spot and microstructure formation and evolution when the laser moves away. The geometry of the melt pool is quite flexible and we explore effects of variances in model parameters on simulated microstructures.

Robust Distributed State Estimator for Interconnected Transmission and Distribution Networks (Final Report RPPR-1)

This project’s objective is to develop a combined transmission and distribution state estimator which accounts for very large system size and model complexity (by way of distributing the computations) and large number of solar PV units connected to the distribution system on multiple feeders. The project not only provides a robust formulation and solution to this problem but also tests the solution by implementing it on a well-established large utility system. It introduces several improvements with respect to the state of the art in existing state estimation software: (a) The developed state estimator (SE) allows robust and accurate monitoring of bidirectional flows in distribution systems which result due to the distributed energy sources which are not observable and thus not incorporated in generation dispatch; (b) Large utility systems with tens of thousands of transmission buses and hundreds of thousands of distribution nodes are difficult to model as a single integrated system. This shortcoming is addressed by developing a “scalable distributed computational framework” which allows splitting the ultra large system models into several small subsystems and coordinating their solution by a robust and practical state estimation formulation; (c) Measurement errors irrespective of their locations are detected and removed by the developed state estimator. Historically, transmission and distribution systems were analyzed and operated as two independent systems. Given the non-transposed short feeder sections, unevenly loaded phases, strictly radial configuration and unidirectional power flows in the absence of remote generation, distribution system analysis was customized to account for these characteristics. However, some of these assumptions are no longer valid (non-radial configuration, bidirectional power flows) and thus distribution system analysis should be revisited. Furthermore, in the past, the interaction between the transmission and distribution systems was quite passive, where distribution substations were modeled as lumped loads in the transmission system model. With substantial generation injected by renewable generation located in the distribution systems, such modeling will no longer be accurate. The developed state estimator facilitates proper monitoring of the interactions between the transmission and distribution systems and enables smart dispatch of these units which are made observable by the state estimator.

Development of Ion Stopping Models for HED Plasmas Using Unified Self-Consistent Field Models and Self-Consistent Electron Distributions

We have implemented several corrections to the electronic stopping power model combining the RPA dielectric response formalism and local density approximation with electronic density distribution calculated in an average atom model. These modifications include strong collision correction, local field correction, electron binding energy correction, and the Barkas effect. The combined results bring the RPA-LDA stopping power in cold targets to closer agreements with experiments for a wide range of materials. The same method is then applied to the stopping of ions in warm dense plasmas. The computational framework developed during this project is publicly available on GitHub (https://github.com/dedx-erpa/dedx). Tabulated data for protons in cold target for common materials are located in the data/ subdirectory of the repository.

Models to Incorporate Reaction Mechanisms into DG-OSPREY: Fixed-Bed Simulations for Organic Iodides Capture Using Ag 0 Z

As one of the most potent radioisotopes released during spent nuclear fuel reprocessing, 129 I is strictly regulated and must be removed before discharge. Organic iodides (primarily alkyl iodides with different chain lengths, i.e., CH 3 I, C 4 H 9 I, and C 12 H 25 I) comprise ~2% of the total iodine in the reprocessing off-gases and are primarily present in vessel off-gas (VOG). Reduced silver mordenite (Ag 0 Z) is predominantly considered for the removal of radioiodine; however, its capture performance and underlying interaction processes with long-chain organic iodides are not fully understood. Two major tasks were accomplished in this study. First, to improve upon the previous experimental studies where Ag 0 Z was used to capture CH 3 I, C 4 H 9 I, and C 12 H 25 I at different concentrations, we comprehensively investigated the corresponding capture mechanisms by characterizing fully loaded Ag 0 Z samples. Second, computational codes were implemented to perform fixed-bed simulations that account for transport and reaction mechanisms. Scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDX), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-vis DRS), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were conducted on Ag 0 Z samples that are saturated with I 2 , CH 3 I, C 4 H 9 I, and C 12 H 25 I), respectively. Results indicate that AgI is the predominant adsorption product regardless of the adsorbed iodine species, yet alkyl iodides with different carbon chain lengths may have different compositions of α- and γ-AgI. Synchrotron pair distribution function (PDF) measurements and TGA coupled with a Fourier transformed infrared detector (TGA FTIR) have been performed, and experimental data are currently analyzed. Results are expected to provide further insights into the adsorption mechanisms. The fixed-bed capture performance for CH 3 I was successfully simulated by solving mathematical equations that describe the underlying transport processes and adsorption reactions. The computational framework, Catalytic After Treatment System (CATS), that was originated in our research group, was used to solve the governing equations. Kinetic parameters, including the pore diffusivity and reaction rate constant were obtained by optimization techniques using data from thin-bed experiments performed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The performance of a deep bed predicted using the optimized parameters showed promising agreement with the experimental data.

Arctic Critical Infrastructure: Assessing and Predicting the Risk to Critical Permafrost Infrastructure from Climate Change: A New Thermomechanical Approach

This study presents the development of a computational framework designed to predict the interaction between permafrost and infrastructure, addressing potential failure modes and mitigation strategies in the context of climate change. The framework, rooted in advanced modeling and simulation (mod/sim) techniques, integrates thermomechanical coupling to account for the complex interplay between heat flow, ice content, and mechanical behavior in permafrost. Existing models fail to fully capture these dynamics, particularly as they relate to the effects of ice saturation on structural integrity. Our innovative Arctic Coastal Erosion (ACE) framework fills this gap by coupling thermal and mechanical models to accurately simulate subsidence and deformation in permafrost environments. We applied the ACE framework to a representative runway, demonstrating its capability to predict settlement due to rising temperatures and subsequent permafrost thaw. This proof-of-concept showcases the potential of the framework to evaluate risks to Arctic infrastructure, which supports over four million people and 70% of existing permafrost-based structures. By simulating various infrastructure types and environmental conditions, our research offers insights into failure mechanisms and evaluates structural solutions to mitigate risk. The anticipated deliverables, including a prototype runway exemplar, position this project as a critical advancement in permafrost infrastructure modeling, with applications in national security and resilience planning.

Unifying Quantum Materials Modeling and Experiments: The Role of Machine Learning Interatomic Potentials

Computational experiments have emerged as a powerful complement to traditional experiments in the design of new materials. The development of machine learning (ML) and deep learning techniques, combined with database construction and data mining, has significantly enhanced traditional quantum mechanical methods. This synergy enables the rapid development of structure-property relationships. In this talk, I will discuss our recent efforts in applying Machine Learning Interatomic Potentials (MLIAPs) to accelerate materials modeling across various material classes and challenging applications where traditional methods fall short. First, I will highlight the success of MLIAPs in accurately modeling the melting behavior of complex materials. Our results demonstrate high fidelity with experimental observations and also with calculated reference melting temperatures. In the second application, I will discuss how MLIAPs are trained and applied to elucidate the interplay between segregation tendencies and surface reconstructions in CuNi alloys under oxidizing conditions. A key factor in the success of these MLIAP applications is the design of minimalistic yet flexible datasets along with a computational framework for training MLIAPs.

Advanced Modeling and Process-Materials Co-Optimization Strategies for Swing Adsorption Based Gas Separations

This project devised a computational framework for simultaneously co-optimizing pressure swing adsorption process designs along with the sorbent materials (specifically, metal-organic frameworks) to be employed in the associated packed bed columns. The materials optimization aspect involved search over a design space that can describe the material’s molecular structure, while the process optimization aspect considered various process degrees of freedom for steps arising in various cycle configurations. This framework was demonstrated on the separation of nitrogen and carbon dioxide, which arises ubiquitously in a multitude of post-combustion carbon capture and “blue” hydrogen production applications. Our results led to metal-organic framework molecular descriptor choices that are predicted to outperform standard structures used in practice, providing guidance for future metal-organic framework synthesis efforts.

Radiation damage effects in beryllium for next generation neutrino beam targetry (Final Technical Report)

Current and future high-power accelerators put severe requirements on materials used for target and beam windows and target facilities have been recognized as a critical challenge in development of future particle accelerators. In accelerators, window and target materials are exposed to extreme conditions, which include bombardment with very high energy protons (1- 100 GeV) and thermomechanical shock waves. Radiation can cause direct damage in the material, and it leads to production of transmutation products (especially helium), both phenomena having a potential adverse effect on the stability and durability of the target/window material. At high enough temperatures, He can aggregate to form gas bubbles, which in turn cause significant dimensional changes (swelling), enable easy crack propagation, and eventually cause failure by fracture. On the other hand, if the temperature is too low, radiation damage accumulates in the form of internal defects (e.g., dislocations), leading to hardening and a decreased ductility of the material. In this project, we will focus on beryllium since it is considered to be one of the candidate materials for beam windows and targets in the next-generation proton accelerators, e.g., the Long Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF). Radiation effects in Be have been studied in the context of nuclear fusion reactor applications. However, key differences exist between reactor and accelerator conditions, including neutron vs. proton irradiation, continuous vs. pulsed beam flux, much higher energies of bombarding particles in accelerators, and higher operating temperatures for typical reactors. For example, the impact of beam pulsing on the radiation damage and the He bubble kinetics is largely unknown. While results obtained on Be from fusion research might not be directly transferrable to understanding target materials, there is an opportunity to bring state-of-the-art tools from materials research in nuclear reactors to aid design of target and beam window materials in high-power accelerators. To this end, the overarching goal of this project are to develop an experimentally-validated computational framework capable of predicting radiation damage evolution in beryllium relevant to beam window and target conditions, focusing on He bubble formation and growth as a function of irradiation temperature. Our model will be based on the cluster dynamics formalism, where size distribution of defects and He bubbles is simulated as a function of time, temperature, and radiation dose. Parameters for the model will be taken from published experiments and from high-fidelity atomistic simulations proposed in this project. In addition, we will carry out a series of targeted ex-situ and in-situ dual-beam experiments using low-energy protons to provide critical data for validation of the model on the effects of radiation on He clustering, He bubble distribution, and dislocation loop density/size in proton irradiated Be.

Probing Condensed-Phase Structure and Dynamics in Hierarchical Zeolites and Nanosheets for Catalytic Upgradation of Biomass (Final Report)

Understanding complex reaction pathways in systems governed by multi-scale collective interactions across time and length scales remains a central scientific challenge. This project was guided by the hypothesis that the interplay among oligomers, solvents, and active sites can be tuned by a suitable choice of solvation environment and pore architecture in solid-acid catalysts to direct chemical transformations relevant to biomass conversion. Zeolites and zeolite nanosheets were used as model platforms, allowing for the interaction of macromolecules with the surface of the zeolite nanosheets and with smaller pores that host catalytically active sites. To investigate these coupled phenomena, we employ a multi-scale computational framework that integrates molecular-level descriptions with advanced sampling approaches to capture key physical and chemical interactions. Our work through this project improved fundamental understanding of how reactants and solid-acid catalysts interact in solvent-rich environments, thereby enabling the rational design of catalytic systems that upgrade biomass with enhanced selectivity and energy efficiency. In addition, the project developed advanced sampling methodologies critical for disentangling complex, reactive processes in multi-component catalytic environments.
