DynamicMC full source code V2.1.

The present program has the ability to generate ORNL phantom input script for Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) package.


How to run:

1) make clean

2) qmake

3) make

4) make -f makefile.gen

5) make -f makefile.sfml


run using: ./DynamicMC


change material definition to atomic % or weight % using mat. opt. (at% -> for atomic %, wt% for weight %)


****** Bug Fix 0.1 ******


Bug: 

Issue with wt% for neutron transport, number of lines in the generated MCNP code beyond column 80. 


Current status:

Bug has been fixed on 6 March 2023.


Note: 

at% uses same numerical entries as wt% material def., in the original ORNL phantom developments, similar material definition was used which may not be really accurate as Hydrogen concentration  would be lower. 

We included this only for benchmarking purpose and also to avoid any confusion for users that wish to use their custom material definitions.

We strongly recommend to use wt% when dealing with neutron beams.  


**********************


You need to install SFML libraries, GCC compiler package and MCNP package.
