Reactor evOLutionary aLgorithm Optimizer

ROLLO is an open-source Python package that applies evolutionary algorithm techniques to optimize nuclear reactor design. It couples the DEAP (Distributed Evolutionary Algorithms in Python) evolutionary algorithm driver with nuclear software, such as neutron transport and thermal-hydraulics codes. ROLLO is nuclear-software agnostic, and designed to easily couple to any software.

ROLLO’s source code is hosted on Github. For more information on ROLLO, feel free to post a message on the ROLLO Github Discussions Forum.
