We propose numerical methods on Cartesian meshes for solving the 2-D axisymmetric two-temperature resistivive magnetohydrodynamics equations with self-generated magnetic field and Braginskii’s [1] closures. These rely on a splitting of the complete system in several subsystems according to the nature of the underlying mathematical operator. The hyperbolic part is solved using conservative high-order dimensionally split Lagrange-remap schemes whereas...

We present the convergence analysis of locally divergence-free discontinuous Galerkin methods for the induction equations which appear in the ideal magnetohydrodynamic system. When we use a second order Runge Kutta time discretization, under the CFL condition $\Delta t\sim h^{4/3}$, we obtain error estimates in $L^2$ of order $𝒪(\Delta t^2+h^{m+1/2})$ where $m$ is the degree of the local polynomials.

The incompressible MHD equations couple Navier-Stokes equations with Maxwell's equations to describe the flow of a viscous, incompressible, and electrically conducting fluid in a Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^3$. We verify convergence of iterates of different coupling and decoupling fully discrete schemes towards weak solutions for vanishing discretization parameters. Optimal first order of convergence is shown in the presence of strong solutions for a splitting scheme which decouples the computation of velocity...
