- Nonlinear MHD simulations using the NIMROD code
- A nonlinear MHD simulation of a rotating sawtooth seeding a tearing mode with the NIMROD code. Initial mode structures are in agreement with linear predictions, while in nonlinear phases the mode structure becomes contorted by rotational flow shear and thermal anisotropy. Two isosurfaces of the n=1 Electron Temperature perturbation are shown. The green isosurface adheres to the 2/1 topology, while the orange adheres to the 1/1 topology.
