An artificial compressibility analogy approach for compressible ideal MHD: Application to space weather simulation

An artificial compressibility analogy approach for compressible ideal MHD: Application to space weather simulation

Ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulations are known to have problems in satisfying the solenoidal constraint (i.e. the divergence of magnetic field should be equal to zero, $ ablacdotvec{B} = 0$). The simulations become unstable unless specific measures have been taken. In this thesis, a solenoid...
