The magnetic compression has long been proposed a promising method for the plasma heating in a field reversed configuration (FRC), however, it remains a challenge to fully understand the physical mechanisms underlying the compression…
The nonlinear evolution of the tilt instability in a field reversed configuration (FRC) during the dynamic magnetic compression process has been investigated using magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations with the NIMROD code [C. R. Sovinec…
Accurate prediction of hypersonic flow fields over a compression ramp is critical for aerodynamic design but remains challenging due to the scarcity of experimental measurements such as velocity. This study systematically develops a data…
The time evolution of high-energy synchrotron radiation generated in a relativistic pair plasma energized by reconnection of strong magnetic fields is investigated with two- and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) particle-in-cell (PIC)…
Simulations have played a critical role in the advancement of our knowledge of magnetic reconnection. However, due to the inherently multiscale nature of reconnection, it is impossible to simulate all physics at all scales. For this reason,…
The China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR) and the Huazhong Field Reversed Configuration (HFRC), currently both under intensive physical and engineering designs in China, are the two major projects representative of the low-density…
Large-scale coronal plasma evolutions can be adequately described by magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations. However, full multi-dimensional MHD simulations require substantial computational resources. Given the low plasma $\beta$ in the…
Our understanding of magnetic reconnection (MR) under chromospheric conditions remains limited. Recent observations have demonstrated the important role of ion-neutral interactions in the dynamics of the chromosphere. Furthermore, the…
Heliospheric plasmas require multi-scale and multi-physics considerations. On one hand, MHD codes are widely used for global simulations of the solar-terrestrial environments, but do not provide the most elaborate physical description of…

The two-dimentional (2D) separatrix shaping plays a crucial role in the confinement of the Field Reversed Configuration (FRC), and the magnetic coils serve as an effective means for its control. In this work we develop a method to optimize…
High-energy astrophysical systems and compact objects are frequently modeled using ideal relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) or force-free electrodynamic (FFE) simulations, with the underlying assumption that the discretisation from the…
One of the main challenges in the numerical modeling of binary neutron-star (BNS) mergers is long-term simulations of the post-merger remnant over timescales of the order of seconds. When this modeling includes all the aspects of complex…
A Hamiltonian two-field gyrofluid model is used to investigate the dynamics of an electron-ion collisionless plasma subject to a strong ambient magnetic field, within a spectral range extending from the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) scales to…
Till now the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of the reversed field pinch (RFP) has been performed by assuming axis-symmetric radial time independent dissipation profiles. In helical states this assumption is not correct since these…
Relativistic magnetic reconnection is one of the most fundamental mechanisms considered responsible for the acceleration of relativistic particles in astrophysical jets and magnetospheres of compact objects. Understanding the properties of…
The efficient simulation of fluid-structure interactions at zero Reynolds number requires the use of fast summation techniques in order to rapidly compute the long-ranged hydrodynamic interactions between the structures. One approach for…
