modeling (evolution, equilibrium and stability)
- Computational physics
support for tokamak design (optimization of PF magnet locations, current
waveforms)
- Eddy currents, magnetic
field and EM load modeling
- Analytical and Numerical
Code development for external projects
Current Activities
- Modeling time-evolution of SST-1 tokamak plasma by TSC and
other codes
- Modeling of Equilibrium and Stability in advanced-tokamak
modes
- Kinetic Monte Carlo studies on diffusion of hydrogen in
graphite
- Molecular dynamics studies on interaction of hydrocarbon
molecules with graphite surface
- Physics of thin film growth
- Modeling for external projects
Special Equipments
- Desktop PC's running RedHat 9.0
- A PC Cluster called SAPTARSHI consisting of 6
P-IV and a File server with Linux RedHat-7.3 as O/S.
