1. Analysis of Hall effect thrusters using Hybrid PIC simulations and coupling to EP plume
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/RymdteknikAbstract : In the last 30 years, numerical models have been developed to properly analyze Hall eect thrusters (HET),leading to a bridge between analytical prediction/empirical intuition and experiments. For companies in thespace sector, these codes serve to much more than simply simulating the thruster, but it provides a fast, cheapand reliable tool for processes such as validation and verication procedures, as well as for technical developmentof the thruster.

2. Development of a hybrid PIC code for the simulation of plasma spacecraft interactions
University essay from KTH/Rymd- och plasmafysikAbstract : Electric propulsion is gaining popularity in space industry. This type of propulsion is replacing chemical propulsion for different maneuvers. But it deeply modifies the ambient plasma that surrounds the satellites and can affect the operation of satellites. Modelling the interactions arising from electric propulsion is then critical. READ MORE

3. PIC/FLIP Fluid Simulation Using Block-Optimized Grid Data Structure
University essay from Institutionen för teknik och naturvetenskapAbstract : This thesis work will examin and present how to implement a Particle-In-Cell and a Fluid-Implicit-Particle (PIC / FLIP) fluid solver that takes advantage of the inherent parallelism of Digital Domain's sparse block optimized data structure, DB-Grid. The methods offer a hybrid approach between particle and grid based simulation. READ MORE
