Light Water Reactor Sustainability Program Status Report on the Grizzly Code Enhancements

Description: This report summarizes work conducted during fiscal year 2013 to work toward developing a full capability to evaluate fracture contour J-integrals to the Grizzly code. This is a progress report on ongoing work. During the next fiscal year, this capability will be completed, and Grizzly will be capable of evaluating these contour integrals for 3D geometry, including the effects of thermal stress and large deformation. A usable, limited capability has been developed, which is capable of evaluatin… more

Assessment of PCMI Simulation Using the Multidimensional Multiphysics BISON Fuel Performance Code

Description: Since 2008, the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) has been developing a next-generation nuclear fuel performance code called BISON. BISON is built using INL’s Multiphysics Object-Oriented Simulation Environment, or MOOSE. MOOSE is a massively parallel, finite element-based framework to solve systems of coupled non-linear partial differential equations using the Jacobian-FreeNewton Krylov (JFNK) method. MOOSE supports the use of complex two- and three-dimensional meshes and uses implicit time inte… more
