As part of the Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation (NEAMS) Campaign of the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Nuclear Energy, an initiative was started to provide time dependent isotopic modeling capabilities to the PROTEUS neutronics module of the Simulation based High-efficiency Advanced Reactor Prototyping (SHARP) toolkit. This capability is to be provided through a coupling with the Oak Ridge Isotope Generation (ORIGEN) code, which is part of the SCALE code package developed and maintained at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. This development has been a joint effort between the developers of PROTEUS at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL).
