Artificial intelligence for the Simulation of Severe AccidentS - ASSAS

since 2023-05-01 - 2026-10-31
Project page: assas-horizon-euratom.eu

The ASSAS project aims at developing a proof-of-concept SA (severe accident) simulator based on ASTEC (Accident Source Term Evaluation Code). The prototype basic-principle simulator will model a simplified generic Western-type pressurized light water reactor (PWR). It will have a graphical user interface to control the simulation and visualize the results. It will run in real-time and even much faster for some phases of the accident. The prototype will be able to show the main phenomena occurring during a SA, including in-vessel and ex-vessel phases. It is meant to train students, nuclear energy professionals and non-specialists. In addition to its direct use, the prototype will demonstrate the feasibility of developing different types of fast-running SA simulators, while keeping the accuracy of the underlying physical models. Thus, different computational solutions will be explored in parallel. Code optimisation and parallelisation will be implemented. Beside these reliable techniques, different machine-learning methods will be tested to develop fast surrogate models. This alternate path is riskier, but it could drastically enhance the performances of the code. A comprehensive review of ASTEC's structure and available algorithms will be performed to define the most relevant modelling strategies, which may include the replacement of specific calculations steps, entire modules of ASTEC or more global surrogate models. Solutions will be explored to extend the models developed for the PWR simulator to other reactor types and SA codes. The training data-base of SA sequences used for machine-learning will be made openly available. Developing an enhanced version of ASTEC and interfacing it with a commercial simulation environment will make it possible for the industry to develop engineering and full-scale simulators in the future. These can be used to design SA management guidelines, to develop new safety systems and to train operators to use them.

Besides supporting the ongoing development of the EOSC as an overarching research infrastructure, AquaINFRA is addressing the specific need for enabling researchers from the marine and freshwater communities to work and collaborate across those two domains.

Implementation of an InfraStructure for dAta-BasEd Learning in environmental sciences - ISABEL

Contact: Dr. Marcus Strobl
Funding: DFG
since 2022-12-01 - 2025-11-30

The amount and diversity of digitally available environmental data is continuously increasing.  However, they are often hardly accessible or scientifically usable. The datasets frequently lack sufficient metadata description, are stored in a variety of data formats, and are still saved on local storage devices instead of data portals or repositories. Based on the virtual research environment V-FOR-WaTer, which was developed in a previous project, ISABEL aims at making this data abundance available in an easy-to-use web portal. Environmental scientists get access to data from different sources, e.g. state offices or university projects, and can share their own data through the portal. Integrated tools help to easily pre-process and scale the data and make them available in a consistent format. Further tools for more complex scientific analyses will be included. These are both implemented by the developers of the portal according to the requirements of the scientific community and contributed directly by the portal’s users. The possibility to store workflows together with the tools and respective data ensures reproducible data analysis. Additionally, interfaces with existing data repositories enable easy publication of the scientists’ data directly from the portal. ISABEL addresses the needs of researchers of hydrology and environmental science to not only find and access datasets but also conduct efficient data-based learning with standardised tools and reproducible workflows.

Project page: geschkult.fu-berlin.de/e/materialisierte-heiligkeit

In the project "Materialized Holiness" Torah scrolls are studied as an extraordinary codicological, theological and social phenomenon. Unlike, for example, copies of the Bible, the copying of sacred scrolls has been governed by strict regulations since antiquity and is complemented by a rich commentary literature. Together with experts in Jewish studies, materials research, and the social sciences, we would like to build a digital repository of knowledge that does justice to the complexity of this research subject. Jewish scribal literature with English translations, material analyses, paleographic studies of medieval Torah scrolls, as well as interview and film material on scribes of the present day are to be brought together in a unique collection and examined in an interdisciplinary manner for the first time. In addition, a 'virtual Torah scroll' to be developed will reveal minute paleographic details of the script and its significance in cultural memory.

Metadata Management for Applied Sciences ( MASi)

Contact: Dr. Rainer Stotzka
Funding: DFG
since 2015-03-01 - 2019-06-30

Nowadays, an ever increasing amount of data is to be seen or expected in science. There is a great potential to gain new insights in various scientific fields by using this data efficiently. The drawback is the also ever increasing complexity and amount of the data and therefore the larger effort put on scientists in their daily work. Methods for data processing, which could be used in the past efficiently, might simply become impractical by failing to process large amounts of data in a given time and new methods need to be adopted or developed. In this project a novel and generic metadata management for scientific data will be developed based on an application-oriented description via metadata. The development process is accompanied by applied scientists from various and heterogeneous domains. The metadata management not only supports the data handling, but also allows an efficient use of provided scientific infrastructures. This infrastructure is going to be realized between the computing facilities of Dresden and Karlsruhe to provide generic and distributed services for metadata-based data handling. The management includes functionalities for data description, sustainable data storage, improved information retrieval, preparation for further processing and usage of available data.
