Abstract

We construct solutions of the magnetohydrostatic (MHS) equations in bounded domains and on the torus in three spatial dimensions, as infinite time limits of Voigt approximations of viscous, non-resistive incompressible magnetohydrodynamics equations. The Voigt approximations modify the time evolution without introducing artificial viscosity. We show that the obtained MHS solutions are regular, nontrivial, and are not Beltrami fields.
