Resistive MHD and NLUF project (Shule Li, Adam Frank)
We test the resistive MHD functionality. We run through tests such as Sweet-Parker box, magnetic island formation. The resistive MHD can be used to simulate the shock clump interaction experiment for the NLUF project.

Shock Triggered Star Formation (Shule Li, Adam Frank, Eric Blackman)
Studying the triggering condition and post-triggering evolution for triggered star formation. Also study the influence of initial cloud rotation and magnetic field.
Simulation Components: shock running over otherwise stable Bonnor-Ebert sphere to trigger collapse.

Multiphysics in AstroBEAR (Shule Li)
Implement multiphysics functionality into AstroBEAR. The first set of physics includes: thermal conduction, viscosity and resistivity.

AstroBEAR GPU (Shule Li)
In this project, we implement and benchmark the AstroBEAR solvers on GPU.
