The inverse transfer of magnetic helicity is a fundamental process which may explain large scale magnetic structure formation and sustainement. Until very recently, direct numerical simulations (DNS) of the inverse transfer in…
We present an efficient dimension-by-dimension finite-volume method which solves the adiabatic magnetohydrodynamics equations at high discretization order, using the constrained-transport approach on Cartesian grids. Results are presented…
In this chapter, we aim at presenting the basic techniques necessary to go beyond the widely accepted paradigm of second-order numerics. We specifically focus on finite-volume schemes for hyperbolic conservation laws occuring in fluid…
The role of the different helical components of the magnetic and velocity fields in the inverse spectral transfer of magnetic helicity is investigated through Fourier shell-to-shell transfer analysis. Both magnetic helicity and energetic…
The inverse transfer of magnetic helicity is investigated through direct numerical simulations of large-scale-mechanically-driven turbulent flows in the isothermal ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) framework. The mechanical forcing is either…
In this work, a simple fourth-order accurate finite volume semi-discrete scheme is introduced to solve astrophysical magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) problems on Cartesian meshes. Hydrodynamic quantities like density, momentum and energy are…
