In ideal MHD, the magnetic flux is advected by the plasma motion, freezing flux-surfaces into the flow. An MHD equilibrium is reached when the flow relaxes and force balance is achieved. We ask what classes of MHD equilibria can be accessed…
This article deals with the Hadamard instability of the so-called $\mu(I)$ model of dense rapidly-sheared granular flow, as reported recently by Barker et al. (2015,this journal, ${\bf 779}$, 794-818). The present paper presents a more…
In conventional spectral/finite element methods, the triangulation/quadrilateralization of the domain produces many interior edges which require additional DOF. What if we could directly use the original hull without going to…
