In this study, 3D magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations are considered in array of cubic domains having insulated external boundaries separated by conducting thin walls. In order to obtain stable solutions, stabilized version of the Galerkin finite element method is used as a numerical scheme. Different problem parameters and configurations are tested in order to visualize the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed algorithm. Obtained solutions are visualized as contour lines of 2D slices taken from the obtained 3D domain solutions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of the study is to critically examine political realism which is traced back to Machiavellian approaches of disconnecting politics from morality and to evlauate the possibility of if and how the historical Ahilik tradition could fill the void. It is evident that the lack morally based practices in politics produced problems and burdens which could carried anymore by the political systems. The post-modern paradigm which deeply affected the modern paradigm too left aside the issue of the relationship politics and morality. As opposed to the radical utopian solutions to the problem of political amorality, Ahilik seems more promising for developing plausible and applicable alternatives. This study focuses on the practices of the Ottoman Empire which represents the pinnacle of Ahilik system. Within this frame work, these issues are addressed with regard to "the structure of the political system" and "political power elites." [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this study, a model of accretive growth for arbitrary surfaces in three-dimensional Minkowski space is formulated by evolving a curve. An analytical approach to surfaces is also given in terms of a few parameters which are effective in the accretive growth of surfaces. The proposed method is visualized on some test surfaces and displayed in terms of figures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium in an axisymmetric plasma is described by the Grad-Shafranov (GS) equation in terms of the magnetic flux. Boundary element method (BEM) is suitable for plasma equilibrium since it requires the discretization of only the plasma boundary which changes shape during the operation of an actual fusion device. In this paper, numerical solutions of the GS equation are obtained by using the boundary element method, the finite element method (FEM) and the differential quadrature method (DQM) for a rectangular plasma when the source term (current density function) on the right hand side is assumed to be a monomial. Our aim is also to find the most applicable numerical procedure between those three methods for different plasma profiles. We transform the equation to the homogeneous one with a particular solution eliminating the domain integral in the BEM formulation. For the source term containing the magnetic flux (nonlinear right hand side) an iterative procedure is made use of in the BEM and FEM formulations. It is found that the FEM gives better accuracy for a D-shape tokamak plasma whereas the BEM is more suitable for a Solov'ev tokamak plasma. The solutions agree very well with the previously published numerical solutions for a rectangular plasma. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
