NDFOM Description for DNDO Summer Internship Program

Nuclear Detection Figure of Merit (NDFOM) is a DNDO-funded project at LANL to develop a software framework that allows a user to evaluate a radiation detection scenario of interest, quickly obtaining results on detector performance. It is intended as a “first step” in detector performance assessment, and meant to be easily employed by subject matter experts (SMEs) and non-SMEs alike. The generic scenario consists of a potential source moving past a detector at a relative velocity and with a distance of closest approach. Such a scenario is capable of describing, e.g., vehicles driving through portal monitors, border patrol scanning suspected illicit materials with a handheld instrument, and first responders with backpackor pager-based detectors (see Fig. 1). The backend library is prepopulated by the NDFOM developers to include sources and detectors of interest to DNDO and its community.

US Naval Academy: Internship After-Action Report (AAR)

DTRA and NNSA need to understand certain energetic products in order to define requirements for ongoing nuclear weapon enterprise programs. By characterizing shaped charges, for example, we can proactively protect our existing nuclear stockpile. Being able to effectively and accurately model these characteristics allows us to more efficiently utilize time, money, and resources so that we can best protect our assets. I was partnered with another midshipman to work on this project with our advisor, along with a team of explosives technicians, and several specialists in computational simulations. In order to determine the pressure field created by the jet and the jet velocity, I worked with and modified simulations using CTH, a code developed at Sandia. I compared values from the simulation to what was determined experimentally.

Internship Report on Sandia National Labs

Sandia National Laboratories (also known as Sandia Labs) is a Government owned contractor operated facility. Sandia's mission is to develop advanced technologies to ensure global peace. The laboratory first began in 1945 as a division of Los Alamos National Laboratory and did not become its own laboratory until 1948. The labs was a descendant of the Manhattan Project and about 20 years later, Sandia National Laboratory became part of the Department of Energy (DOE) laboratories.

Sandia National Labs Summer Internship

I am working for Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, New Mexico in the Summer Product Realization Institute for Nuclear Weapons (NW SPRINT). NW SPRINT focused on increasing agility and facilitating the development of novel concepts and ideas on a compressed schedule. The program focuses on using advanced manufacturing technologies to innovate and revolutionize the products that Sandia National Laboratories delivers. The program is a design challenge incorporating knowledge from various engineering fields to design and implement a working product. Multiple teams from different departments compete to develop and iterate the best design. I am working on a team of five with individual disciplines including Mechanical, Aerospace, and Electrical Engineering.

Summer Internship Project: Set Topology [Slides]

Why a Set Topology? 1. Expand the array of tools given to physicists, educators, and students. 2. Through usages of PIC, MPM, and Monte Carlo. 3. My work at LANL was specified to handle requirements for the usage of MPM with FleCSI. 4. What we want it to do - phase change, simulating plasma, and other Multiphysics applications. 5. In FleCSI we already have mesh structures, we needed a way to represent those particles and certain behavior's of these particles that clients desire.
