Introduction

CARMEN code was firstly developed by Olivier Roussel to perform the simulation of the Advection-diffusion, Burgers-diffusion, Flame front, Flame ball, Flame-curl interaction and Navier-Stokes equations with the finite volume method in the context of the adaptive multiresolution analysis for cell-averages. The code was extended to the resistive and ideal MHD equations in order to take advantage of the wavelet based multiresolution algorithm. Its development was done in such a way that the code structure was exclusively for MHD simulations.

The MHD equations are given by
