متن کاملComputer Simulations of Statistical Models and Dynamic Complex Systems
This article is an expanded version of the notes used by the authors in the course taught in the 2004 edition of the Brazilian School of Statistical Mechanics (EBME), held in February of 2004 at the São Carlos campus of the State University of São Paulo (USP). The various sections are mostly independent of each other, and can be read in any order. Different styles and notations, independently a...
متن کاملHydromagnetic turbulence in computer simulations
Hydromagnetic processes play an important role in many astrophysical systems (e.g. stars, galaxies, accretion discs). This is because the medium is hot enough to be partially or fully ionized. Because of the huge scales involved the medium is usually turbulent, provided there is an instability (shear, convection) facilitating the cascading of energy down to small scales. In turbulence research ...
متن کامل5.6 Numerical Models of Entrainment into Sheared Convective Boundary Layers Evaluated through Large Eddy Simulations
Atmospheric convective boundary layer (CBL) entrainment is the downward mixing of free atmospheric air into the CBL as the CBL grows. Primarily, the CBL entrainment is driven by the buoyancy production of turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) due to heating of the lower surface or cooling at the CBL top. The effects of shear-generated turbulence in the CBL are secondary. However, cases of a purely bu...
متن کاملComputer simulations as experiments
Whereas computer simulations involve no direct physical interaction between the machine they are run on and the physical systems they are used to investigate, they are often used as experiments and yield data about these systems. It is commonly argued that they do so because they are implemented on physical machines. We claim that physicality is not necessary for their representational and pred...
