Introduction to Basic Simulations with OpenMC:
Getting Started
Register here to attend
As part of the IAEA’s ONCORE (Open Nuclear Education for Research Reactors) initiative, we are pleased to announce an upcoming webinar Introduction to Basic Neutronics Simulations with OpenMC: Getting Started. The event will be focused on the fundamentals of using OpenMC, an open-source Monte Carlo particle transport code widely used in the nuclear engineering community.
The webinar will be conducted by Mr Patrick Shriwise, a scientist at Argonne National Laboratory and adjunct professor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. A key developer of the OpenMC code, Prof. Shriwise specializes in Monte Carlo particle transport, ray tracing, multiphysics, and open-source software development. Patrick also serves as a member of the IAEA ONCORE Advisory Group.
This webinar will provide a hands-on introduction to building and running basic models in OpenMC, including guidance on geometry and material setup, tallying, and result interpretation.
The webinar is particularly aimed at students and researchers interested in neutronics simulations and looking to become familiar with modern, open-source computational tools.
No prior experience with OpenMC is required, but a basic understanding of reactor physics concepts is recommended.
