Spatial-reasoning for Agents in Multiple Dimensions
Suppose a group of mobile agents situated in some Euclidean space does not have any idea on where they are exactly located within that space. However, they do have some notion about their relative positions with respect to each other. This problem may be formulated as a multi-dimensional point-based qualitative reasoning problem with disjunctive constraints. In this article we have developed a ...
متن کاملVlasov-code simulation
For decades kinetic space plasma simulation, i.e. the solution of Vlasov-Maxwell equations, has been dominated by PIC (Particle-In-Cell) codes that utilize the motion of the particles along the characteristics of the Vlasovequation for a LagrangeEuler approach reducing the solution of the Vlasov advection type PDE (Partial Differential Equation) to the solution of ODEs (Ordinary Differential Eq...
متن کاملVlasov simulation of Langmuir wave packets
Amplitude modulation and packet formation of Langmuir waves are commonly observed during a nonlinear interaction between electron beams and plasmas. In this paper, we briefly review the history of Langmuir wave packets as developed by recent spacecraft observations and computer simulations. New one-dimensional electrostatic Vlasov simulations are performed to study their formation processes. It...
متن کاملVlasov simulation of kinetic shear Alfvén waves
The treatment of kinetic shear Alfvén waves in homogeneous magnetized plasmas by means of Vlasov simulation is examined. To this end, the driftkinetic version of the Vlasov–Maxwell equations is solved via various numerical schemes, all employing a grid in (1 + 1)D phase space. Since kinetic shear Alfvén waves are Landau damped, the use of an equidistant grid in velocity space leads to a recurre...
متن کاملVlasov simulation of electrostatic solitary structures in multi-component plasmas
[1] Electrostatic solitary structures have been observed in the Earth’s magnetosheath by the Cluster spacecraft. Recent theoretical work has suggested that these solitary structures are modeled by electron acoustic solitary waves existing in a four-component plasma system consisting of core electrons, two counter-streaming electron beams, and one species of background ions. In this paper, the e...
