We study the observable signatures of self-gravitating MHD turbulence by applying the probability density functions (PDFs) and the spatial density power spectrum to synthetic column density maps. We find that there exists three…
Understanding the physics of turbulence is crucial for many applications, including weather, industry, and astrophysics. In the interstellar medium (ISM), supersonic turbulence plays a crucial role in controlling the gas density and…
Here we report the development of SPRAY, a massively parallel GPU accelerated, smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH)-based, radiation hydrodynamics (RHD) code designed specifically for simulating high intensity laser-plasma interactions.…
In this paper we present a novel hydrodynamic experiment using liquid $^4$He. The flow is forced inertially by a canonical oscillating grid using either its normal (He~I) or superfluid (He~II) phase, generating a statistically stationary…
Simulations of decaying magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence are performed with a fluid and a kinetic code. The initial condition is an ensemble of long-wavelength, counter-propagating, shear-Alfv\'{e}n waves, which interact and rapidly…
Z-pinch platforms constitute a promising pathway to fusion energy research. Here, we present a one-dimensional numerical study of the staged Z-pinch (SZP) concept using the FLASH and MACH2 codes. We discuss the verification of the codes…
We perform simulations of giant impacts onto the young Uranus using smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) with over 100 million particles. This 100--1000$\times$ improvement in particle number reveals that simulations with below 10^7…
Our work is motivated by the analysis of ash plume dynamics, arising in the study of volcanic eruptions. Such phenomena are characterized by large Reynolds number (exceeding $10^7$) and a large number of polydispersed particles~[1]. Thus,…
Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is a unique numerical method widely used for astrophysical problems since it involves no spatial grid. Rather, fluid quantities are carried by a set of Lagrangian `particles' which move with the flow,…
We study energy dissipation and heating by supersonic MHD turbulence in molecular clouds using Athena, a new higher-order Godunov code. We analyze the dependence of the saturation amplitude, energy dissipation characteristics, power…
We study scaling relations of compressible isothermal strongly magnetized turbulence using numerical simulations with resolution 512$^3$. We find a good correspondence of our results with the Fleck (1996) model of compressible hydrodynamic…
We present a direct numerical and analytical study of driven supersonic MHD turbulence that is believed to govern the dynamics of star-forming molecular clouds. We describe statistical properties of the turbulence by measuring the velocity…
Particle methods play an important role in the study of a wide variety of astrophysical fluid dynamics problems. The different methods currently in use are all variants of the so-called Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) scheme…
We perform three-dimensional (3D) compressible MHD simulations over many dynamical times for an extended range of sonic and Alfven Mach numbers and analyze the statistics of 3D density and 2D column density, which include probability…
The present work reports on the flow physics of turbulent supersonic flow over backward facing step (BFS) at Mach 2 using LES methodology where the dynamic Smagorinsky model is used for SGS modeling, while POD is invoked to identify the…
The question of the shape of the density PDF for supersonic turbulence is addressed, using both analytical and numerical methods. For isothermal supersonic turbulence, the PDF is Log-Normal, with a width that scales approximately linearly…
The Lagrangian vortex method offers an alternative numerical approach for direct numerical simulation of turbulence. The fact that it uses the fast multipole method (FMM)--a hierarchical algorithm for N-body problems with highly scalable…
The semi-analytical wall boundary conditions present a mathematically rigorous framework to prescribe the influence of solid walls in SPH for fluid flows. In this paper they are investigated with respect to the skew-adjoint property which…
When two galaxy clusters encounter each other, the interaction results in a collisionless shock that is characterized by a low (1-4) sonic Mach number, and a high Alfv{\'e}nic Mach number. Our goal is to determine if, and to what extent,…
We present a novel method of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) within the smoothed particle hydrodynamics scheme using the Geometric Density average force expression (GDSPH). GDSPH has recently been shown to reduce the leading order errors and…
