In Situ, Real-Time Diagnostic to Improve the Liquid Metal Jetting Additive Manufacturing Process [Poster]

Liquid Metal Jetting (LMJ) is a metal additive manufacturing technique that involves jetting molten metal droplets at high frequencies to build solid metal parts. As an alternative to industry standard Lazer Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) and Direct Metal Writing (DMW) techniques, LMJ poses significant advantages including no powder feed stock, no post sintering process, very high deposition rates, and the capability to print various metals. This summer, I was tasked with improving my old system to process at much higher resolution, Increasing the capture rate, and implementing this diagnostic on various LMJ setups. This system provides a vital longitudinal study to understand individual droplets in the LMJ process.

Comparative Analysis of DNA LLM Classification Techniques Using Intra-Layer Feature Extraction with Autoencoder Stacks [Poster]

This project conducts a comparative analysis of DNA LLM classification techniques using Evo2, Grover, and UTRML, focusing on intra-layer feature extraction in Evo2. By extracting features from multiple layers of Evo2 and integrating them into an autoencoder stack with a binary classification head, we evaluate its effectiveness in classifying genomic sequences compared to smaller DNA language models. My findings demonstrate that Evo2 outperforms Grover and UTRML in classification accuracy on a dataset provided by department 08625, CAO2021, while UTRML offers competitive performance with lower computational costs. This study highlights the potential of advanced embedding techniques in enhancing genomic data analysis and informs future research in bioinformatics.

Broadband mm-Wave Substrate Integrated Waveguides [Poster]

At mm-wave frequencies, signals need to be supported by specialized, low-loss transmission lines such as waveguides. Substrate-integrated waveguides (SIWs) combine the good electrical properties of rectangular waveguides with the compactness of planar transmission lines. Additionally, SIWs can be fabricated using standard PCB manufacturing techniques and can be easily integrated with other mm-wave components. This study explores SIWs in the 50-75 GHz range, with designs optimized for simple fabrication.

Electrochemical Production of Calcium Hydroxide from Calcium Carbonate [Poster]

Cement production involves the decomposition of limestone (calcium carbonate) at high temperatures (~900°C) to produce CaO, a major constituent in Portland cement (60-70%). Our unique approach will eliminate the high temperature process and introduce a low-temperature electrochemical process to produce Ca(OH) 2 which can be converted into CaO through dehydration process. This program will allow SRNL to become a leading organization in an open and unexplored field that addresses many of the technical challenges.

Preliminary Comparison of Neutron Detector Sensitivities [Poster]

Nuclear data (ND) is vital to predictive simulations such as those completed with MCNP®. ND sensitivities are used to optimize the design of benchmark experiments. Diverse benchmarks (including neutron noise) are required to further our understanding of ND. Measured and simulated data of a 4.5-kg Pu sphere was used to calculate neutron noise parameters and associated ND Sensitivities

Nuclear Criticality Safety Program (NCSP)

Critical Simulation Pipeline for COG Suites [Poster]

The CRItical Simulation Pipeline (CRISP) is a Python package for automating validation of reactor criticality benchmarks. CRISP supplies COG—a multi-particle radiation transport code maintained by the Nuclear Criticality Safety Division—with a pipeline to calculate k eff performance for 400+ benchmark experiments with 3,400+ configurations from the International Criticality Safety Benchmark Evaluation Project (ICSBEP). The pipeline includes four stages: materials configuration, input card templating, cluster submission, and results analysis. CRISP includes a command-line interface to facilitate user interaction.
