PROFILE

Adam Birchfield

Worked on the ORNL/GridKit repository to enhance cross-platform build reliability and improve model documentation for power systems simulation. Addressed Windows compatibility by implementing conditional compiler flags and defining MSVC-specific macros in CMake and C++ sources, enabling successful compilation with Microsoft Visual C++. Developed a new GenClassical synchronous machine example, refactored the underlying model to reduce state size, and corrected algebraic equations, updating related tests accordingly. Overhauled the documentation and reorganized Phasor Dynamics examples using Markdown and LaTeX, streamlining onboarding and maintainability. The work demonstrated a focus on robust build system configuration, technical writing, and simulation model clarity.
