RSICC ID C00836MNYCP03. (FISPACT-II 5.0)
4. NATURE OF PROBLEM SOLVED
FISPACT-II is an enhanced multiphysics inventory and source-term code system providing a wide variety of advanced, predictive, spectral, and temporal simulation methods. It employs the most up‑to‑date and complete nuclear data forms for both neutron and charged-particle interactions.

5. METHOD OF SOLUTION
FISPACT-II uses the numerical Livermore Solver for Ordinary Differential Equations (LSODES), with general sparse Jacobian matrices. Backward differentiation formula (BDF) methods (Gear’s method) in stiff cases advance the inventory, Adams methods (predictor-corrector) are used in non-stiff cases, and the Yale sparse matrix package efficiently exploits the sparsity.
6. RESTRICTIONS OR LIMITATIONS
None noted.
7. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME
Run times vary (seconds to minutes).
8. COMPUTER HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
FISPACT-II will run on Linux, MacOS, and Windows systems.
9. COMPUTER SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS
Executables created by the developers are included for Linux, MacOS, and Windows systems. The included Windows executable was run at RSICC on Windows 10, and the Linux executable was run under Ubuntu 20.04.
If recompilation is required, then a current Fortran compiler is needed.
