Relating force balances and flow length scales in geodynamo simulations
Tobias Schwaiger, Thomas Gastine, Julien Aubert
In fluid dynamics, the scaling behaviour of flow length scales is commonly used to infer the governing force balance of a system. The key to a successful approach is to measure len…

Force balance in numerical geodynamo simulations: a systematic study
T. Schwaiger, T. Gastine, J. Aubert
Dynamo action in the Earth's outer core is expected to be controlled by a balance between pressure, Coriolis, buoyancy and Lorentz forces, with marginal contributions from inertia…
