a SciDAC activity based on extensions and applications of the NIMROD and M3D codes

GRAPHICS HIGHLIGHTS

 

• Pressure isosurface during a periodic sawtooth event..(movie...requires Quicktime)

   

• NSTX sawtooth, showing pressure contours and surface with some B-lines(M3D)
• A equi-pressure surface of LI383 case with beta exceeding the design limit, shows nonlinear ballooning mode steepening to form ribbon-like structure. (M3D)

   

• Initial equi-pressure surface at the boundary and some field lines.(M3D)
