GEFIE-QUAD
This first-principles simulation method models the interaction of laser light with diffraction gratings, giving scientists a powerful tool to predict the performance of a laser compressor.
PDES
PDES focuses on models that can accurately and effectively simulate California’s large-scale electric grid.
Phase-Field Modeling
Based on a discretization and time-stepping algorithm, these equations include a local order parameter, a quaternion representation of local orientation, and species composition.
Improving models of clouds and atmospheric turbulence
With simple mathematical modifications to a common model of clouds and turbulence, LLNL scientists and their collaborators helped minimize nonphysical results.
Surveys to understand developer health and happiness
Computer scientist Vanessa Sochat talks to BSSw about a recent effort to survey software developer needs at LLNL.
Open source is fueling the future of nuclear physics
Open-source software has played a key role in paving the way for LLNL's ignition breakthrough, and will continue to help push the field forward.
