Abstract
This article describes the results of several numerical simulations of vortex dynamics in type-ii superconductors. The underlying mathematic al model is the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau model. The simulations concern vortex penetration in the presence of twin boundaries, interfa ce patterns between regions of opposite vortex orientation, and magnet ic-flux entry patterns in superconducting samples.
