ARKODE: A Flexible IVP Solver Infrastructure for One-step Methods

We describe the ARKODE library of one-step time integration methods for ordinary differential equation (ODE) initial-value problems (IVPs). In addition to providing standard explicit and diagonally implicit Runge–Kutta methods, ARKODE supports one-step methods designed to treat additive splittings of the IVP, including implicit-explicit (ImEx) additive Runge–Kutta methods and multirate infinitesimal (MRI) methods. We present the role of ARKODE within the SUNDIALS suite of time integration and nonlinear solver libraries, the core ARKODE infrastructure for utilities common to large classes of one-step methods, as well as its use of “time stepper” modules enabling easy incorporation of novel algorithms into the library. Numerical results show example problems of increasing complexity, highlighting the algorithmic flexibility afforded through this infrastructure, and include a larger multiphysics application leveraging multiple algorithmic features from ARKODE and SUNDIALS.

A Spatiotemporal Prediction Model for Regional Scheduling of Shared Bicycles Based on the INLA Method

Dock-less bicycle-sharing programs have been widely accepted as an efficient mode to benefit health and reduce congestions. And modeling and prediction has always been a core proposition in the field of transportation. Most of the existing demand prediction models for shared bikes take regions as research objects; therefore, a POI-based method can be a beneficial complement to existing research, including zone-level, OD-level, and station-level techniques. Point of interest (POI) is the location description of spatial entities, which can reflect the cycling route characteristics for both commuting and noncommuting trips to a certain extent, and is also the main generating point and attraction point of shared-bike travel flow. In this study, we make an effort to model a POI-level cycling demand with a Bayesian hierarchical method. The proposed model combines the integrated nested Laplace approximation (INLA) and random partial differential equation (SPDE) to cope with the huge computation in the modeling process. In particular, we have adopted the dock-less bicycle-sharing rental records of Mobike as a case study to validate our method; the study area was one of the fastest growing urban districts in Shanghai in August 2016. The operation results show that the method can help better understand, measure, and characterize spatiotemporal patterns of bike-share ridership at the POI level and quantify the impact of the spatiotemporal effect on bicycle-sharing use.

Whole cell simulator

A whole cell model (WCM) is a comprehensive multi-scale computational model representing all the known biochemical processes in a cell. It relies on a variety of intracellular pathway models and omics data. This computational framework enables seamless integration of diverse simulation methods used in WCM such as stochastic simulation algorithm (SSA), ordinary differential equations (ODE), flux balance analysis (FBA), and logic-based approaches. These methods run simultaneously, not only for whole pathways but also for subsets of reactions. Furthermore, we aim to enable dynamic switching between the methods when beneficial. Is

MEUMAPPS (Microstructure Evolution Using Massively Parallel Phase-field Simulations)

The software “MEUMAPPS” is a h high-performance computing code used to simulate microstructure evolution associated with diffusional solid-state transformations in structural alloys. Understanding microstructure evolution during thermo-mechanical processing of structural alloys is the first step towards designing and processing alloys for specific applications by meeting property requirements demanded by the application. In this instance, the code is an important component in predicting processing-structure linkages during additive manufacturing of structural alloys as a function of processing parameters and alloy composition used in an additive manufacturing process. The code provides a detailed three-dimensional distribution of different types of phases / constituents and their morphologies, as well as the compositions of these phases that make up the microstructure. The microstructure is simulated by solving the governing partial differential equations using a Fourier Spectral Method.

CARDINAL

Cardinal is a code that automates the workflow for iteratively solving neutral particle transport via the OpenMC code and computational fluid dynamics via the NekRS code within the Multiphysics Object Oriented Simulation Environment (MOOSE), a finite element framework for solving general partial differential equations. Cardinal establishes a mapping between the Monte Carlo geometry representation used in OpenMC and the spectral element mesh used in NekRS to other physics applications built upon the MOOSE framework, allowing high-resolution particle transport and fluid dynamics physics feedback to the MOOSE application ecosystem. Heat generation rates as solved by OpenMC are used as heat sources in MOOSE, while the temperature and density fields from NekRS are used as conjugate heat transfer boundary conditions and/or source fields in MOOSE. OpenMC, Nek5000, and MOOSE are open source, community-developed simulation codes.

Latent Space Dynamics Identification

LaSDI is a data-driven physical simulation software that forms a latent space for a given high-fidelity model and discovers a set of ordinary differential equations for the latent space dynamics. It allows a fast and accurate solution process, which is useful for multi-query decision making applications, such as design optimization and uncertainty quantification. The performance of the LaSDI framework is demonstrated on four different problems, i.e., 1D and 2D Burgers equations, nonlinear heat conduction, and radial advection problems. Both linear and nonlinear compression techniques, such as neural network and proper orthogonal decomposition, are used to form a latent space. A concept of local dynamics identification procedure is introduced to enable a parametric model, which enhances the accuracy level over a given parameter space.

PINNSTRIPES (Physics-Informed Neural Network SurrogaTe for Rapidly Identifying Parameters in Energy Systems) [SWR-22-12]

Energy systems models typically take the form of complex partial differential equations which make multiple forward calculations prohibitively expensive. Fast and data-efficient construction of surrogate models is of utmost importance for applications that require parameter exploration such as design optimization and Bayesian calibration. In presence of a large number of parameters, surrogate models that capture correct dependencies may be difficult to construct with traditional techniques. The issue is addressed here with the formulation of the surrogate model constructed via Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINN) which capture the dependence with respect to the parameters to estimate, while using a limited amount of data. Since forward evaluations of the surrogate model are cheap, parameter exploration is made inexpensive, even when considering a large number of parameters.

pnnl/neural_ODE_ICLR2020

We show how to model discrete ordinary differential equations (ODE) with algebraic nonlinearities as deep neural networks with varying degrees of prior knowledge. We derive the stability guarantees of the network layers based on the implicit constraints imposed on the weight's eigenvalues. Moreover, we show how to use barrier methods to generically handle additional inequality constraints. We demonstrate the prediction accuracy of learned neural ODEs evaluated on open-loop simulations compared to ground truth dynamics with bi-linear terms.

AMReX v2024

The software framework, AMReX, supports the development of block-structured adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) algorithms for solving systems of partial differential equations. AMR reduces the computational cost and memory footprint compared to a uniform mesh while preserving the essential local descriptions of different physical processes in complex multiphysics algorithms. AMR uses a hierarchical representation of the solution at multiple levels of resolution where the solution on each level is defined on the union of data containers at that resolution. These data containers, which represent the solution over a logically rectangular subregion of the domain, can contain field data defined on a mesh, Lagrangian particles or combinations of both. In addition to these basic data types, AMReX supports a multilevel embedded boundary representation of complex geometry; linear solvers for cell-centered and nodal data; asynchronous I/O in a native format readable by ParaView, VisIt and yt; and interfaces to hypre and PETSc solvers. AMReX enables applications to run on distributed memory architectures with multicore CPUs and with GPU accelerators. AMReX uses a lightweight abstraction layer that effectively hides the details of the architecture from the application. The framework currently supports CUDA, HIP and SYCL for GPU acceleration and OpenMP for multi-core CPU architectures.
