Numerical workshop

4 codes are available during the practice session of Tuesday, October 2 afternoon (2:30PM-7:30PM):

• DEDALUS CODE : MHD code in cartesian and spherical geometry, teacher : Laura Currie (Univ. Exeter)

http://dedalus-project.org/

• ESTER CODE: code for calculating the internal structure of a 1D and 2D star, teachers: Michel Rieutord (IRAP)

http://ester-project.github.io/ester/

• MAGIC CODE: MHD code in spherical geometry, teacher: Raphaël Raynaud (CEA/SAp)

http://magic-sph.github.io/

• PENCIL CODE: MHD code in Cartesian, cylindrical and spherical geometry, teacher: Boris Dintrans (IRAP & CINES) ;  dedicated webpage for these numerical experiments : http://userpages.irap.omp.eu/~bdintrans/EES2018

These 4 codes are included in a Linux virtual machine (Lubuntu 16.04, file VM-EES2018.ova) downloadable via this link:

https://filesender.renater.fr/?s=download&token=dadef0d1-f67d-56e9-10ff-d3303145ce0b

This virtual machine must be launched via the VirtualBox application downloadable from the Oracle website: 

https://www.virtualbox.org/

To import the virtual machine VM-EES2018.ova, use the "Import Appliance" menu of VirtualBox:

Note: if there is a problem recognizing your keyboard after launching the VM, use the linux setxkbmap command to switch from one keyboard to another (eg FR azerty -> US qwerty: setxkbmap us).
