A parallel solution-adaptive scheme for ideal magnetohydrodynamics
A parallel adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) scheme is described for solving the hyperbolic system of partial-differential equations governing ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows in three space dimensions. This highly parallelized algorithm adopts a cell-centered upwind finite-volume discretization procedure and uses limited solution reconstruction, approximate Riemann solvers, and explicit multistage time stepping …
