Magnetohydrodynamic with Adaptively Embedded Particle-in-Cell model: MHD-AEPIC

Adaptively restrained particle simulations.

Interaction potentials used in particle simulations are typically written as a sum of terms which depend on just a few relative particle positions. Traditional simulation methods move all particles at each time step, and may thus spend a lot of time updating interparticle forces. In this Letter we introduce adaptively restrained particle simulations (ARPS) to speed up particle simulations by ad...

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD ) Plane Poiseuille Flow With Variable Viscosity and Unequal Wall Temperatures

A high current density DC magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) micropump.

This paper describes the working principle of a DC magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) micropump that can be operated at high DC current densities (J) in 75-microm-deep microfluidic channels without introducing gas bubbles into the pumping channel. The main design feature for current generation is a micromachined frit-like structure that connects the pumping channel to side reservoirs, where platinum ele...

Particle Acceleration by Mhd Turbulence

Recent advances in understanding of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence call for revisions in the picture of particle acceleration. We make use of the recently established scaling of slow and fast MHD modes in strong and weak MHD turbulence to provide a systematic study of particle acceleration in magnetic pressure (low-β) and gaseous pressure (high-β) dominated plasmas. We consider the accele...

A New Mathematical Model in Cell Formation Problem with Consideration of Inventory and Backorder: Genetic and Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithms

Cell Formation (CF) is the initial step in the configuration of cell assembling frameworks. This paper proposes a new mathematical model for the CF problem considering aspects of production planning, namely inventory, backorder, and subcontracting. In this paper, for the first time, backorder is considered in cell formation problem. The main objective is to minimize the total fixed and variable...
