A high-order accurate adjoint-based optimization framework is presented for unsteady multiphysics problems. The fully discrete adjoint solver relies on the high-order, linearly stable, partitioned solver introduced in [1], where different…
Linear systems in applications are typically well-posed, and yet the coefficient matrices may be nearly singular in that the condition number $\kappa(\boldsymbol{A})$ may be close to $1/\varepsilon_{w}$, where $\varepsilon_{w}$ denotes the…
We derive the transport equations from the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation when the velocity space is spherically symmetric. The Shkarofsky's form of Fokker-Planck-Rosenbluth collision operator is employed in the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck…
We consider the linear stability problem for a 3D cylindrically symmetric equilibrium of the relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell system that describes a collisionless plasma. For an equilibrium whose distribution function decreases monotonically…
The subject matter of this paper concerns the derivation of the finite Larmor radius approximation, when collisions are taken into account. Several studies are performed, corresponding to different collision kernels. The main motivation…
An efficient numerical scheme for solving transport equations for tokamak plasmas within an integrated modelling framework is presented. The plasma transport equations are formulated as diffusion-advection equations in two coordinates (a…
We present a new method for solving the relativistic Vlasov--Maxwell system of equations, applicable to a wide range of extreme high-energy-density astrophysical and laboratory environments. The method directly discretizes the kinetic…
In this work, we propose a positivity-preserving scheme for solving two-dimensional advection-diffusion equations including mixed derivative terms, in order to improve the accuracy of lower-order methods. The solution to these equations, in…
A novel, conservative discontinuous Galerkin algorithm is presented for particle kinetics on manifolds. The motion of particles on the manifold is represented using using both canonical and non-canonical Hamiltonian formulations. Our…
We study the well-posedness, steady states and long time behavior of solutions to Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation with external confinement potential and nonlinear self-consistent interactions. Our analysis introduces newly characterized…
In this article, we study a collisionless kinetic model for plasmas in the neighborhood of a cylindrical metallic Langmuir probe. This model consists in a bi-species Vlasov-Poisson equation in a domain contained between two cylinders with…
Explicit step-truncation tensor methods have recently proven successful in integrating initial value problems for high-dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs). However, the combination of non-linearity and stiffness may introduce…
The Fokker-Planck equation describes the evolution of the probability density associated with a stochastic differential equation. As the dimension of the system grows, solving this partial differential equation (PDE) using conventional…
Efficiently solving the Fokker-Planck equation (FPE) is crucial for understanding the probabilistic evolution of stochastic particles in dynamical systems, however, analytical solutions or density functions are only attainable in specific…
An implicit algorithm for solving the equations of general relativistic hydrodynamics in conservative form in three-dimensional axi-symmetry is presented. This algorithm is a direct extension of the pseudo-Newtonian implicit radiative…
This paper introduces the distributed Halpern Peaceman--Rachford (dHPR) method, an efficient algorithm for solving distributed convex composite optimization problems with non-smooth objectives, which achieves a non-ergodic $O(1/k)$…
A simplified primal-dual weak Galerkin (S-PDWG) finite element method is designed for the Fokker-Planck type equation with non-smooth diffusion tensor and drift vector. The discrete system resulting from S-PDWG method has significantly…
Generalising the work of Lenard and Bernstein, we introduce a new, fully relativistic model to describe collisional plasmas. Like the Fokker-Planck operator, this equation represents velocity diffusion and conserves particle number.…
The Fokker-Planck equation describing the transport of energetic particles interacting with turbulence is difficult to solve analytically. Numerical solutions are of course possible but they are not always useful for applications. In the…
Accurate treatment of energetic fusion byproducts in laboratory plasmas often requires a kinetic description, owing to their large birth kinetic energy and long mean-free-paths compared with the characteristic system scale lengths. For…
