Abstract

Two of the ReSoLVE Centre of Excellence teams operate in Aalto University, DYNAMO team in the School of Science, Department of Computer Science. During the years 2016-2017 the DYNAMO team has continued its efforts towards its main objective, namely to understand the long-term evolution of the solar dynamo, through direct numerical simulations of turbulent convection both in local but dominantly in global spherical geometries. In addition to the scientific results, significant methodological advances have been accomplished both in data analysis and numerical modeling, that have enabled some of the results presented here, but are also vital for making further progress in the imminent future.
