WINDMI: A FAMILY OF PHYSICS NETWORK MODELS FOR STORMS AND SUBSTORMS

摘要: Abstract An important problem in magnetospheric physics is to develop integrated dynamical systems capable of modeling storm and substorm databases with the long term aim developing space weather forecasting tools. WINDMI a family physics-based models that range dimensionality, d, from low-order which model flow energy between dominant global components high-order d ~ 102 – 103, for resolve nonlinear dynamics system into different latitudes. The are intrinsically three-dimensional configuration space, use basic geometry Tsyganenko magnetic field define geometrical quantities. Optimal values parameters found using genetic algorithm on given databases. satisfy constraints conservations laws electrical charge their network nodes branches follow topology ambient field. new WINDMI-RC model, builds includes coupling injected plasma sheet across Alfven layer ring current.
