Advanced Modeling of Electro-Energetic Devices

Abstract

The goal of the project was the development of a state of the art code suite in 1D-3D, based on the object-oriented paradigm pioneered in the XOOPIC code, supported in the previous decade by AFOSR. Advances planned included massively parallel computing capability, a programmable front-end for controlling the code using the Python language, and a back-end diagnostic and plotting package based on Python. Planned physical models included improved boundary conditions, including conformal boundary capability, uniformity and extension from 1D to 3D, and many improved physics capabilities aimed at microwave sources and high pressure plasmas.
