1987-1991:
Doctoral Dissertation.
Analytical
/
Numerical Modelling and Computer
Simulations
for Theoretical Plasma Physics and Controlled
Thermonuclear Fusion. Developed large code that
solved (analytically and numerically) a set of
multidimensional and time dependent integro deferential
equations which resulted in a study state or time
dependent distribution function (Kinetic and Fluid Models
For Plasma Transport). The numerical methods used
included the following finite difference methods: Implicit
and Semi-Implicit (to obtain a stable numerical solution).
Computers used: CRAY (UNICOS), VAX (VMS), PC IBM.
