Effective engineering of materials defects and defect properties on the atomic scale is crucial for creating materials for applications in nanotechnology, i.e., ultra-miniaturization of sensors, storage, processing, and communication. Silicon carbide (SiC) is a large...
We show that energy barriers and critical fields of skyrmion collapse as well as skyrmion lifetimes are drastically enhanced due to frustrated exchange and that antiskyrmions are metastable. Skyrmions are localized, topologically non-trivial spin structures which have...
Continuing with our efforts on understanding the effect of pressure gradient and curvature on turbulent wings, we have now constructed a database consisting of time and spatially resolved turbulence around wings at 4 Reynolds numbers, starting at the low Re=100k up to...
Our continuing work on extending the open-source code Nek5000, based on the high-order spectral element method, has now reached a level of maturity such that we can – for the first time – perform simulations of turbulence in complex geometries. Adaptive mesh...
Together with colleagues from Umeå University, we implemented in Nek5000 the possibility to perform high-order accurate topology optimization, useful for flows driven by natural convection. To obtain a design with a given length scale, we apply regularization...
