Non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations, of crucial importance in sliding friction, are hampered by arbitrariness and uncertainties in the removal of the frictionally generated Joule heat. Building upon general pre-existing…
Nonlinear gyrokinetics provides a suitable framework to describe short-wavelength turbulence in magnetized laboratory and astrophysical plasmas. In the electrostatic limit, this system is known to exhibit a free energy cascade towards small…
The most difficult aspect of the realistic modeling of granular materials is how to capture the real shape of the particles. Here we present a method to simulate granular materials with complex-shaped particles. The particle shape is…
We study by means of numerical simulations the model of dissipative particle dynamics with energy conservation for the simple case of thermal conduction. It is shown that the model displays correct equilibrium fluctuations and reproduces…
Gyrokinetic simulation codes are used to understand the microturbulence in the linear and nonlinear regimes of the tokamak and stellarator core. The codes that use flux coordinates to reduce computational complexities introduced by the…
The theory of open quantum systems plays a fundamental role in several scientific and technological disciplines, from quantum computing and information science to molecular electronics and quantum thermodynamics. Despite its widespread…
Many plasmas of interest to the astrophysical and fusion communities are weakly collisional. In such plasmas, small scales can develop in the distribution of particle velocities, potentially affecting observable quantities such as turbulent…
In this paper, we apply a specifically designed dissipative spatial filter as sub-grid scale model within the increasingly popular discontinuous Galerkin methods and the closely related flux reconstruction high order methods for large eddy…
We propose new concept of energy reservoir and effectively conserved quantity, what enables us to treat dissipative systems along the lines of the framework of Geometric Numerical Integration. Using this opportunity, we try to confirm…
Computed-torque control requires a very precise dynamical model of the robot for compensating the manipulator dynamics. This allows reduction of the controller's feedback gains resulting in disturbance attenuation and other advantages.…
Learning how to safely handle Plasma-Material Interaction (PMI) is a key challenge towards the commercialisation of energy from nuclear fusion. In this respect, linear plasma devices are ideal experimental testbeds, and numerical codes play…
We consider coupled models for particulate flows, where the disperse phase is made of particles with distinct sizes. We are thus led to a system coupling the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations to the multi-component Vlasov-Fokker-Planck…
Accurate modeling of core instabilities in tokamak plasmas is essential to understand the underlying physical mechanisms and their impact on plasma confinement. The ideal stability of the internal kink mode and the m = 1 collisionless…
We present a generalized, data-driven collisional operator for one-component plasmas, learned from molecular dynamics simulations, to extend the collisional kinetic model beyond the weakly coupled regime. The proposed operator features an…
In this work, we have formulated and implemented a mixed unstructured mesh-based finite element (FE)-Fourier decomposition scheme for gyrokinetic simulations in realistic tokamak geometry. An efficient particle positioning…
An electrostatic gyrokinetic-based model is applied to simulate parallel plasma transport in the scrape-off layer to a divertor plate. The authors focus on a test problem that has been studied previously, using parameters chosen to model a…
The problem of collisions in a plasma is a wide subject with a huge historical literature. In fact, the description of realistic plasmas is a tough problem to attach, both from the theoretical and the numerical point of view, and which…
A new form of the model collision operator for a Boltzmann gas of hard spheres and Coulomb plasma is derived. One-component and many-component systems are considered. The collision operator proposed takes properly into account the…
We derive a second-order realizability-preserving scheme for moment models for linear kinetic equations. We apply this scheme to the first-order continuous and discontinuous models in slab and three-dimensional geometry derived in a…
We propose a high order discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method for solving nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations with a gradient flow structure. For some of these models it is known that the transient solutions converge to steady-states when time…
