FlexibleSUSY - a meta spectrum generator for supersymmetric models
2016
FlexibleSUSY is a software package that takes as input descriptions of (non-)minimal supersymmetric models written in Wolfram/Mathematica and generates a set of spectrum generator libraries and executables, with the aid of SARAH. The design goals are precision, reliability, modularity, speed, and readability of the code. The boundary conditions are independent C++ objects that are plugged into the boundary value problem solver together with the model objects. This clean separation makes it easy to adapt the generated code for individual projects. The current status of the interface and implementation is sketched.
A computational magnetohydrodynamic model of a marine propulsion system
2016
In this article we present an approach to the description of Magnetohydrodynamic Propulsion. Preliminarly, an analytical model which includes an electromagnetic model and a thermal model is presented. Successively, in order to move beyond the analytical model, a 3-D MHD modeling tool and a Runge Kutta method based solver are presented and they are used to investigate an alternative MHD solutions. Some numerical analysis are given.
An Exact Riemann Solver for Multidimensional Special Relativistic Hydrodynamics
2001
We have generalised the exact solution of the Riemann problem in special relativistic hydrodynamics (Marti and Muller, 1994) for arbitrary tangential flow velocities. The solution is obtained by solving the jump conditions across shocks plus an ordinary differential equation arising from the self-similarity condition along rarefaction waves, in a similar way as in purely normal flow. This solution has been used to build up an exact Riemann solver implemented in a multidimensional relativistic (Godunov-type) hydro-code.
Numerical evolution of matter in dynamical axisymmetric black hole spacetimes
2000
We have developed a numerical code to study the evolution of self-gravitating matter in dynamic black hole axisymmetric spacetimes in general relativity. The matter fields are evolved with a high-resolution shock-capturing scheme that uses the characteristic information of the general relativistic hydrodynamic equations to build up a linearized Riemann solver. The spacetime is evolved with an axisymmetric ADM code designed to evolve a wormhole in full general relativity. We discuss the numerical and algorithmic issues related to the effective coupling of the hydrodynamical and spacetime pieces of the code, as well as the numerical methods and gauge conditions we use to evolve such spacetime…
The Numerical Simulation of Relativistic Fluid Flow with Strong Shocks
2001
In this review we present and analyze the performance of a Go-dunov type method applied to relativistic fluid flow. Our model equations are the corresponding Euler equations for special relativistic hydrodynamics. By choosing an appropriate vector of unknowns, the equations of special relativistic fluid dynamics (RFD) can be written as a hyperbolic system of conservation laws. We give a complete description of the spectral decomposition of the Jacobian matrices associated to the fluxes in each spatial direction, (see (Donat et al., 1998), for details), which is the essential ingredient of the Godunov-type numerical method we propose in this paper. We also review a numerical flux formula tha…
Upwind Relativistic MHD Code for Astrophysical Applications
2003
We describe the status of devolpment of a 2.5D numerical code to solve the equations of ideal relativistic magnetohydrodynamics. The numerical code, based on high-resolution shock-capturing techniques, solves the equations written in conservation form and computes the numerical fluxes using a linearized Riemann solver. A special procedure is used to force the conservation of magnetic flux along the evolution.
A Divergence-Free High-Resolution Code for MHD
2001
We describe a 2.5D numerical code to solve the equations of ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). The numerical code, based on high-resolution shock-capturing (HRSC) techniques, solves the equations written in conservation form and computes the numerical fluxes using a linearized Riemann solver. A special procedure is used to force the conservation of magnetic flux along the time.
Modelling leaky photonic wires: a mode solver comparison
2006
We present results from a mode solver comparison held within the framework of the European COST P11 project. The structure modelled is a high-index contrast photonic wire in silicon-oninsulator subject to substrate leakage. The methods compared are both in-house developed and commercial, and range from effective index and perturbation methods, over finite-element and finite-difference codes, beam propagation methods, to film mode matching methods and plane wave expansion methods.
Nucleon matrix elements from lattice QCD with all-mode-averaging and a domain-decomposed solver: An exploratory study
2017
We study the performance of all-mode-averaging (AMA) when used in conjunction with a locally deflated SAP-preconditioned solver, determining how to optimize the local block sizes and number of deflation fields in order to minimize the computational cost for a given level of overall statistical accuracy. We find that AMA enables a reduction of the statistical error on nucleon charges by a factor of around two at the same cost when compared to the standard method. As a demonstration, we compute the axial, scalar and tensor charges of the nucleon in $N_f=2$ lattice QCD with non-perturbatively O(a)-improved Wilson quarks, using O(10,000) measurements to pursue the signal out to source-sink sepa…
Equilibrium real gas computations using Marquina's scheme
2003
Marquina's approximate Riemann solver for the compressible Euler equations for gas dynamics is generalized to an arbitrary equilibrium equation of state. Applications of this solver to some test problems in one and two space dimensions show the desired accuracy and robustness
