The plasma jet is typically produced in two steps ... the researchers proposed an innovative computational fluid dynamics simulation model to explore the impact of a curved cutting front on ...

In initial tests modeling an argon plasma sheath, SLPIC yielded the correct sheath profiles (of potential, density, etc.) more than 100 times faster than the comparable PIC simulation. The SLPIC ...

This is rapidly changing, becoming an equal three-way partnership between theory, simulation and experiment. Computing is now playing an equal role in this triad. Electrostatic potential of a toroidal ...

When the plasma inside a fusion system starts to misbehave ... configurations with one injector and five valves. Each simulation is extremely time intensive—taking weeks to run—even though ...

Magnetically confined plasmas are those plasmas that are trapped using magnetic fields. Magnetic fields can prevent high-temperature plasma coming into contact with solid materials that it could ...
