Numerical simulations have recently increased in scale and have often output high dimensional datasets. This makes it difficult for users to quickly grasp physical phenomena involved in such datasets. To overcome this difficulty, we propose a spatio-temporal mapping technique (spatio-temporal map) by using an information visualization technique. The spatio-temporal map is generated by mapping the values of a 3D and time-evolving physical quantity into a 2D space with spatial and temporal axes. Here, 3D spatial information is condensed into one dimension by subdividing a target model with an octree. By using the map, users can quickly find regions of interest (ROI). In addition, users can interactively change several aspects of the map such as its resolution and color coding method. By applying the spatio-temporal map to a full-scale 3D vibration simulator for an entire nuclear power plant, we confirmed that the map is a useful technique to quickly identify appropriate ROI.

We propose a spatio-temporal information mapping technique and the map design function. The spatio-temporal map is created by spatio-temporal information mapping technique. In the map, the change of a physical quantity is allocated in two-dimensional space with spatial and temporal information in each dimension. By the way, it is helpful for users to change the map interactively, such as changing the resolution of the map, colored physical quantity, and so on. Therefore, the function enabling users to design the map by changing the tree structure is also developed.

We have developed the Atomic Energy Grid InfraStructure (AEGIS) for establishing computational infrastructure for nuclear field. In this R&D we have inherited the knowledge and skills in ITBL Infrastructure developed in the national project ITBL (Information Technology Based Laboratory), which aims at establishment of virtual research environment where supercomputers and data bases are connected by network. Here we have focused on two issues: improvements of safety and usability. For the safety, we have made the authentication mechanism double with both the personal certification and the machine certification. For the usability, we have developed the grid-enabled client API to use grid functions on a user terminal. By those R&Ds, we have successfully contributed to various nuclear researches, such as "full scale 3D vibration simulator for an entire nuclear power plant", "simulation for predicting quake-proof capability of nuclear power plants", and so on.

With the improvement in the performance of supercomputers, numerical simulations have become complex and the simulation results have become large-scale. It has made the interpretation of simulation results difficult. Therefore, we propose a spatio-temporal visualization system "spatio-temporal map" for interpreting the time-series simulation results. The spatio-temporal map is an information visualization technique useful for specifying the feature area from simulation and measurement results. In the map, the change of a physical quantity is allocated in two-dimensional space with spatial and temporal information in each dimension. In this paper, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method by applying it to the large scale simulation results.

In this paper, we propose data exploration system for the evaluation of numerical simulation results. With the improvement in the performance of supercomputers, numerical simulations have become larger and more complex, which has made the interpretation of simulation results more difficult. Moreover, occasionally, users cannot evaluate numerical simulation results, even though they have spent a great deal of time, because interactive visualization is impossible for such large-scale data. Therefore, we herein propose a data exploration system with which users evaluate large-scale time-series data that has been obtained in a parallel and distributed environment. The proposed system allows users to simultaneously visualize and analyze data in both the global and local scales.

ACROSS (Accurately Controlled, Routinely Operated, Signal System) is such a precise metrology of frequency response characteristics that the accurately controlled sinusoidal waves (acoustic comb) is used as an input to the linear dynamic system, and induced vibration as an output is measured by the accelerometers synchronized accurately to input. This technology has been developed to be used on a routine basis for the subsurface structural analysis and state-monitoring of the geological targets. We discuss the theoretical background and the related subjects of applying this method to the artificial structures. Further we report the preliminary test experiments and results on the steel beam structure installed at TGC, JAEA.

The transfer function data in frequency domain acquired by ACROSS is analyzed by SOMPI method, which is based essentially on AR model as a discrete equivalent of linear dynamic system. The analysis is made in two steps, time domain analysis and space-wave number domain both in a consistent way as a linear dynamic system. We have derived an accurate set of vibration characteristics including attenuation and also the local characteristics such as wave propagation within the structural units and their interactions. Detection of small change in the structure is demonstrated by introduction of very precise measurement by ACROSS combined with the data analysis by SOMPI method.

Reliable and strict evaluation is demanded to guarantee the safety of nuclear facilities against earthquake vibrations, in particular. Usually the necessary data have been acquired by determining the natural frequency and attenuation characteristics by utilizing microseisms as an excitation agent of the vibration. The presence of measurement errors and estimation bias has been inherent and problematic in this approach. Here we try to make a break through by introducing ACROSS technology, which have been providing very accurate and reliable data on subsurface, i.e., geologic targets. In this paper, we report the relevant strategy, general concept of this approach. The technical subjects on measurement system and also a potential method of analyzing data are reported in the subsequent two papers.

Center for computational science and e-systems of Japan Atomic Energy Agency is carrying out R&D in the area of extra large-scale simulation technologies for solving nuclear plant structures in its entirety. Specifically, we focus on establishing a virtual plant vibration simulator on inter-connected supercomputers intended for seismic response analysis of a whole nuclear plant. The simulation of a whole plant is a very difficult task because an extremely large dataset must be processed. To overcome this difficulty, we have proposed and implemented a necessary simulation framework and computing platform. The computing platform enables an extra large-scale whole nuclear plant simulation to be carried out on a grid computing platform ITBL-IS and AEGIS. The simulation framework based on the computing platform has been applied to a linear elastic analysis of the reactor pressure vessel and cooling systems of the nuclear research facility, HTTR.

We have conducted research and development of the Cognitive methodology based Data Analysis System (CDAS) which supports researchers to analyze large scale data efficiently and comprehensively. Traditionally, much of data analysis process has been carried out by humans. However, when the scale of data is extremely large, data analysis is beyond the recognition capability of humans. The basic idea of CDAS is that computers execute data analysis instead of humans. In the present study, we showed three necessary functions (Verification and Validation: VV, Data Diagnosis: DD and Synthesis) for the design of CDAS. VV and DD functions are executed on gird computing environment and findings output from these functions are integrated on Synthesis functions. Finally CDAS displayed only useful information to human. We have applied the system to the virtual plant vibration simulator and succeeded in analyzing large scale data reaching to 1TB thoroughly for the first time.

Times Cited Count:17 Percentile:47.71(Biology)To carry out the radio-microsurgery study using silkworm, , we have already developed the specific irradiation systems for eggs and third to fifth instar larvae. In this study, a modified application consisting of the first instar silkworm larvae was further developed using heavy-ion microbeams. This system includes aluminum plates with holes specially designed to fix the first instar silkworm larvae during irradiation, and Mylar films were used to adjust energy deposited for planning radiation doses at certain depth. Using this system, the suppression of abnormal proliferation of epidermal cells in the knob mutant was examined. Following target irradiation of the knob-forming region at the first instar stage with 180-mum-diameter microbeam of 220 MeV carbon (C) ions, larvae were reared to evaluate the effects of irradiation. The results indicated that the knob formation at the irradiated segment was specially suppressed in 5.9, 56.4, 66.7 and 73.6 % of larvae irradiated with 120, 250, 400 and 600 Gy, respectively, but the other knob formations at the non-irradiated segments were not suppressed in either irradiation. Although some larva did not survive undesired non-targeted exposure, our present results indicate that this method would be useful to investigate the irradiation effect on a long developmental period of time. Moreover, our system could also be applied to other species by targeting tissues, or organs during development and metamorphosis in insect and animals.

With progress of grid computing technology, various largescale simulations have been carried out using heterogeneous supercomputers which are located in remote locations. It is indispensable to visualize efficiently simulation results output from such simulations. To realize efficient visualization, Center for Computational Science and e-Systems of Japan Atomic Energy Agency (CCSE/JAEA) has developed PST (Parallel Support Toolkit) and PST-STAMPI. PST enables to execute visualization processes in parallel. PST-STAMPI enables to execute visualization process in a distributed and parallel manner. Using PST-STAMPI eliminates researcher's load: the operation of data transfer and the management of data in relation with visualization procedure.
