Open Source

We develop open engineering tools for fusion modelling, simulation and validation, designed to make computational workflows easier to inspect, reproduce and extend. Our open-source work spans practical geometry and diagnostics software, shared validation frameworks and supporting research infrastructure.

Grid Suite

A visual toolkit for designing, generating and inspecting computational grids for BOUT++ workflows. The Grid Suite combines interactive geometry design with grid generation and diagnostic reporting, making it easier to move from an analytic or custom plasma cross-section to a numerically validated simulation grid.

Generated grids can be checked against geometric, magnetic and numerical consistency tests before use, with visual reports designed to expose problems early rather than bury them inside a failed simulation.

Physics Validation Suite

Physics Validation Suite (PVS) is an open, code-agnostic framework for scientific validation and verification. It turns declarative validation cases into portable, auditable evidence packages containing machine-readable records, integrity metadata and human-readable reports.

PVS is designed to sit alongside existing scientific software rather than replace it, making validation results easier to reproduce, inspect and independently verify across different tools and research workflows.

Commercial Support & Engineering

Organisations using Chatwood Labs open-source tools can engage us for implementation support, integration, custom development and project-specific extensions.

Where a workflow requires new formats, validation cases, features or deployment support, we can develop them around defined technical requirements.

Open Development

These projects are developed openly and are intended to improve through external use, scrutiny and contribution.

Bug reports, validation cases, technical discussion, documentation improvements and code contributions are welcome from researchers and engineers using the tools.
