Our group on turbulence has done extensive theoretical and computational research in the area of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD), fluid, and convective turbulence, as well as in magnetic field generation in magnetofluids. On the computational front, we run our programs on our 33-node cluster and a GPU machine, as well as on the supercomputing cluster of institute and national supercomputing facility. We specialize on pseudospectral and spectral-element techniques for simulating the turbulent flows. We have developed a general-purpose and open-source parallel pseudospectral code TARANG that can simulate flows in fluids, MHD, convective flows, stratified flows, rotating fluid, Rayleigh-Taylor flows, magnetoconvection, etc.
