Sandia debuts the Livermore Valley Open Campus website
Post, May 22, 2012 • Through an exciting partnership between two Department of Energy national laboratories, Sandia National Laboratories and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, the Livermore Valley Open Campus (LVOC) was recently established as a space for open, collaborative work in areas such as bioscience, cyber security, detection technologies, and hydrogen applications. The newly-opened LVOC is a 110-acre campus that brings...
Sandia Engaged in Upcoming Combustion Symposium and Workshops
Post, April 29, 2014 • A number of CRF staff members are active in organizing the 35th International Symposium on Combustion. This biennial event, which brings together more than 1,000 scientists, engineers, and others from around the world to explore the latest developments in combustion science, will be held from August 3–8, 2014, at the...
Sandia to demonstrate Hydrogen Risk Assessment Models toolkit prototype
Post, June 18, 2014 • With recent hydrogen fuel cell vehicle market acceleration, cities and neighborhoods where these cars are being sold exhibit a growing need to advance hydrogen fueling system deployments. Understanding and assessing hydrogen-fueling and -storage system risks is a challenging proposition because the necessary scientific information is diffuse and found only in...
Sandia, Hawaii Hydrogen Carriers Partner on Hydrogen Storage System for Forklifts
Post, May 1, 2014 • Zero-emission hydrogen fuel cell systems soon could be powering the forklifts used in warehouses and other industrial settings at lower costs and with faster refueling times than ever before, courtesy of a partnership between Sandia National Laboratories and Hawaii Hydrogen Carriers (HHC). The goal of the project is to design...
Sandia’s Exascale Computing Effort Expected to Curtail Effects of System Faults
Post, March 19, 2014 • Computing power today is more potent than ever before. Or is it? In many applications, yes, but when it comes to sophisticated, detailed modeling of the Earth’s climate and other pressing global challenges, an apt analogy to describe our computational resources might be the use of an abacus to track...
Students and Professors Spend the Summer at Sandia under DOE’s WDTS Program
Post, August 20, 2014 • This past summer, the CRF was the research home to 11 students and 2 professors who participated in the DOE Office of Science's Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists (WDTS) Program. By allowing students and professors to conduct research internships at national laboratories, this program is helping to develop the...
The CRF Hosts the Livermore Rotary Club
Post, August 14, 2012 • Transportation Energy Center Director Bob Carling recently hosted a visit of nearly 100 members of the Livermore Rotary Club. Dr. Carling presented an overview of the Livermore Valley Open Campus and of the work done at Sandia/CA. CRF researchers then conducted tours of the Computational Combustion and Chemistry Lab, the...
Uncertainty Quantification in Chemical Systems with Reaction Mechanisms Employing Rate Rules
Post, January 16, 2014 • A team of researchers—Jens Prager, formerly at the CRF and presently at the engineering simulation software firm CD-adapco; Habib Najm and Khachik Sargsyan of the CRF; Cosmin Safta of Sandia’s Computer Sciences and Information Systems center; and William Pitz of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory—have studied the impact of uncertainty of...
UTRC and CRF researchers discuss turbine engines
Post, June 11, 2012 • On April 23, a group of combustion researchers from the United Technologies Research Center (UTRC) visited the CRF. Led by manager Dr. Catalin Fotache, the UTRC researchers met with senior managers Art Pontau and Andy McIlroy, manager Daniel Dedrick, and others to speak about experimental diagnostics, modeling and simulation with...
