Accurate Computational Algorithms For Hyperbolic Conservation Laws
(2010-10-08)The numerics of hyperbolic conservation laws, e.g., the Euler equations of gas dynamics, shallow water equations and MHD equations, is non-trivial due to the convective terms being highly non-linear and equations being ... -
Damping of magnetic-Coriolis waves with imposed magnetic field orthogonal to the axis of rotation
Small-scale columnar structures (<10 km radius) in Earth's outer core result from inertial waves. In highly conducting fluid, magnetic field behaviour resembles stretched elastic strings and transmits disturbances as Alfvén ... -
MHD Waves Driven by Small-scale Motion and Implications for the Earth's Core
(2018-05-22)Rotating convection in the Earth's core produces columnar vortices of radius ~10 km or less near the inner core boundary. Small-scale motions in the core can travel as Alfvén waves in the face of Ohmic diffusion, provided ... -
A Monolithic Finite Element Formulation for Magnetohydrodynamics Involving a Compressible Fluid
This work develops a new monolithic finite-element-based strategy for Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) involving a compressible fluid based on a continuous velocity-pressure formulation. The entire formula- tion is within a ... -
Studies on Multiphase, Multi-scale Transport Phenomena in the Presence of Superimposed Magnetic Field
(2018-02-28)Multiphase transport phenomena primarily encompass the fundamental principles and applications concerning the systems where overall dynamics are precept by phase change evolution. On the other hand, multiscale transport ...
