PNFE Component of the UNÌC Code
نویسندگان
چکیده
A code package called UNÌC is currently under development at Argonne (Argonne National Laboratory). This new code package is focused on high fidelity solutions for nuclear reactor plant operations. The focus of this paper is the development of a spherical harmonics method used to solve the neutron transport equation. This new code, called PNFE, is just one of the components of UNÌC. PNFE is targeted for use on massively parallel platforms using the PETSc library developed at ANL. In this paper, an overview of the theory behind the spherical harmonics method is given along with some results obtained with a parallel implementation of the code.

متن کاملUNÌC: Ultimate Neutronic Investigation Code
A code called UNÌC is currently under development at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL). The aim of the code is to provide a neutronic solver with the same geometrical flexibility of Monte Carlo codes and without the approximations (homogenization and energy condensation) associated with the common multi-step approach currently used. Moreover, UNÌC will offer the capability of multi-resolution i...
متن کاملSpeech enhancement based on hidden Markov model using sparse code shrinkage
This paper presents a new hidden Markov model-based (HMM-based) speech enhancement framework based on the independent component analysis (ICA). We propose analytical procedures for training clean speech and noise models by the Baum re-estimation algorithm and present a Maximum a posterior (MAP) estimator based on Laplace-Gaussian (for clean speech and noise respectively) combination in the HMM ...
