Full toolchain port. Numerical equivalence verified against MATLAB:
- main_mode_sweep.jl: every mode's final state matches MATLAB to 3-4 dp
- reach_operation.jl: per-halfspace margins match MATLAB exactly
- barrier_lyapunov.jl: per-halfspace bounds match (best Qbar from sweep
yields max|dT_c| = 33.228 K either side)
- barrier_compare_OL_CL.jl: OL gamma 1.038e13, CL gamma 1.848e4
matching the MATLAB result; LQR helps by ~20,000x on every halfspace.
Phase summary:
Phase 1: pke_solver.jl, plot_pke_results.jl (Plots.jl), main_mode_sweep.jl
Phase 2: reach_linear.jl, reach_operation.jl, barrier_lyapunov.jl,
barrier_compare_OL_CL.jl, load_predicates.jl
Phase 3 (this commit): delete plant-model/ entirely, delete reach
code from reachability/ keeping predicates.json + docs,
git mv julia-port/ -> code/, update root README + CLAUDE,
write code/CLAUDE.md and code/README.md, update reach
README + WALKTHROUGH file paths, journal preamble note
that pre-port entries reference MATLAB paths.
Why now: prompt-neutron stiffness in nonlinear reach made it clear we
need TMJets, which is Julia. Already had the Julia plant model
working and matching MATLAB. Two languages = two sources of truth =
two places to drift. One language, one truth.
Manifest.toml gitignored. .mat results gitignored.

# CLAUDE.md
|
|
|
|
Guidance for Claude Code (and any AI agent) working in this repository.
|
|
|
|
## Living documentation — update these files
|
|
|
|
**`CLAUDE.md` files are living.** This one and the ones in subdirectories.
|
|
When you learn something new about the system that a future agent would
|
|
benefit from, update the appropriate `CLAUDE.md` before the session ends.
|
|
**Context that exits a session uncaptured is lost forever** — treat this as
|
|
the single most important rule in this repo.
|
|
|
|
**Where to write:**
|
|
- Stable, authoritative knowledge (architecture, conventions, interfaces,
|
|
design decisions) → the relevant `CLAUDE.md`. Root for cross-cutting;
|
|
subdirectory for layer-specific.
|
|
- Session-level findings, in-progress investigations, paths that didn't pan
|
|
out → `claude_memory/YYYY-MM-DD-topic.md`. See `claude_memory/README.md`
|
|
for the pattern.
|
|
|
|
**When to write:**
|
|
- After a non-trivial debugging session (what broke, root cause, how you knew).
|
|
- After an architectural or structural decision (what we chose, what we
|
|
rejected, why).
|
|
- After discovering a non-obvious fact (subtle constraint, undocumented tool
|
|
behavior, counterintuitive data format).
|
|
- Before ending a session where you explored paths that didn't pan out — so
|
|
the next agent doesn't waste effort redoing them.
|
|
|
|
Over time, session notes that stabilize get distilled up into the relevant
|
|
`CLAUDE.md`; the rest get archived or deleted. This is a discipline, not
|
|
automation — do the graduation explicitly when knowledge becomes authoritative.
|
|
|
|
## What this is
|
|
|
|
The preliminary example for the HAHACS thesis — a PWR startup controller
|
|
demonstrating the full pipeline from written operating procedures to verified
|
|
hybrid controller. This repo composes three layers of the same story:
|
|
|
|
| Layer | Location | Role | Thesis mapping |
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
|
|
| Story | `thesis/` (submodule) | The PhD proposal: math, prose, claims | Motivates and defines the methodology |
|
|
| Discrete | `fret-pipeline/` | FRET requirements → LTL → ltlsynt → AIGER circuit → state machine | Implements Thrust 1 + 2 |
|
|
| Continuous + Verification | `code/` + `reachability/` | 10-state PKE + thermal-hydraulics PWR model, controllers, reach machinery (all Julia) plus `predicates.json` and `WALKTHROUGH.md` | Plant + Thrust 3 (reachability / barrier certs) |
|
|
| Journal | `journal/` | LaTeX invention log, dated entries | Project history / re-derivability |
|
|
| App | `app/` | Pluto.jl predicate explorer | FRET-adjacent UI for hybrid-systems groups |
|
|
| Hardware | `hardware/` | Ovation HIL artifacts | Integration milestone — currently empty |
|
|
| Deliverables | `presentations/` | Conference papers and talks (submodules) | Dissemination |
|
|
|
|
Running example: the `PWR_HYBRID_3` controller. The discrete automaton it
|
|
synthesizes is literally the state machine drawn in `thesis/3-research-approach/approach.tex`
|
|
Figure 1 (Cold Shutdown → Heatup → Power Operation, with SCRAM).
|
|
|
|
## How changes flow
|
|
|
|
1. **Requirement change.** Edit the FRET export (`fret-pipeline/pwr_hybrid_3.json`)
|
|
→ run `fret-pipeline/scripts/fret_to_synth.py` → re-synthesize via
|
|
`synthesize.sh` → re-trace via `trace_aiger.py`. New `.svg` / `.dot` /
|
|
`.png` land in `fret-pipeline/diagrams/`. Copy the figure you want to cite
|
|
into `docs/figures/` so the thesis can pick it up.
|
|
2. **Plant change.** Edit `code/src/pke_params.jl` or dynamics in
|
|
`code/src/pke_th_rhs.jl` → re-run `code/scripts/main_mode_sweep.jl`
|
|
to verify behavior. Steady-state values feed the `T_avg`, `P_crit`
|
|
thresholds via `reachability/predicates.json` — if you change
|
|
parameters here, the predicate concretization may need to follow.
|
|
3. **Verification work.** Continuous-mode verification reads the
|
|
FRET-side predicates from `reachability/predicates.json` and the
|
|
dynamics from `code/src/pke_th_rhs.jl`. Reach scripts in
|
|
`code/scripts/reach_*.jl` and `barrier_*.jl`. Results land back in
|
|
`reachability/*.mat` (gitignored).
|
|
4. **Thesis edit.** `cd thesis && <edit> && git commit && git push origin main`,
|
|
then from the umbrella root: `git add thesis && git commit` to bump the
|
|
submodule pointer.
|
|
|
|
## Where to look for what
|
|
|
|
- Reactor physics, steady-state, ODE dynamics, controllers, reach, barrier → `code/`
|
|
- Predicate concretizations (the seam between FRET and reach) → `reachability/predicates.json`
|
|
- Reach analysis writeup → `reachability/WALKTHROUGH.md`
|
|
- Controller synthesis, requirements, state machines → `fret-pipeline/`
|
|
- Research narrative, math, claims, citations → `thesis/`
|
|
- Shared figures (for the thesis or talks) → `docs/figures/`
|
|
- How the layers compose → `docs/architecture.md`
|
|
- Project history / invention log → `journal/`
|
|
- Predicate-explorer GUI → `app/`
|
|
|
|
## Submodule rituals
|
|
|
|
- Fresh clone: `git clone <url> && git submodule update --init --recursive`
|
|
(or `git clone --recurse-submodules <url>`). Without this, `thesis/` and
|
|
`presentations/2026DICE/` are empty directories.
|
|
- Editing the thesis: `cd thesis && git checkout main` first — submodules
|
|
default to detached HEAD. Then edit, commit, push inside the submodule,
|
|
then `cd ..` and commit the new submodule pointer in the umbrella.
|
|
- Pulling upstream thesis changes: `cd thesis && git pull origin main`, then
|
|
commit the new pointer in the umbrella.
|
|
|
|
## Conventions
|
|
|
|
- FRET variables: `control_<group> = q_<value>` for modes; everything else is
|
|
an environment input. See `fret-pipeline/README.md` for the full naming rule.
|
|
- Plant model units: internal SI (W, kg, °C); printed/plotted in °F.
|
|
- Continuous state vector: `x = [n; C1..C6; T_f; T_c; T_cold]`. Guards
|
|
in FRET should reference the algebraic outputs (`T_hot`, `T_avg`) or
|
|
direct states, not derived quantities.
|
|
- `Q_sg(t)` is the bounded disturbance — never treat `T_cold` as an input.
|
|
- The continuous toolchain is **Julia**. The earlier MATLAB
|
|
implementation was ported on 2026-04-20 and deleted; recover via
|
|
git history if archaeologically needed.
|
|
|
|
## What's deliberately missing (so you don't go looking)
|
|
|
|
- LTL-to-Stateflow translator — there's a known pain point in the thesis
|
|
workflow where AIGER circuits still need to become Stateflow. Not yet
|
|
automated. Current path: generate AIGER → eyeball the state machine
|
|
diagram → hand-translate to Stateflow. Roadmapped.
|
|
- Hardware bring-up (Ovation DCS) — scheduled for the integration thrust.
|
|
`hardware/` is a placeholder.
|
|
- Continuous-mode verification — partial. Linear reach for operation
|
|
mode discharges all 6 `inv2_holds` halfspaces (approximate, not
|
|
sound). Lyapunov-ellipsoid barrier fails structurally
|
|
(anisotropy ceiling — see `reachability/WALKTHROUGH.md`). Nonlinear
|
|
reach (TMJets) functional to 10 s; needs reduced-order PKE for
|
|
hours-long horizons.
|
|
- Polytopic / SOS barriers — flagged in WALKTHROUGH as the next-step
|
|
alternative to the failing quadratic Lyapunov barrier.
|
|
- Reduced-order (prompt-jump) PKE — known remedy for nonlinear reach
|
|
stiffness, not yet implemented.
