Resistive induction equation (${\partial }_t\mathbf{B}=\nabla \times (\mathbf{u}\times \mathbf{B})+\eta {\nabla }^2\mathbf{B}$)

For a solenoidal vector field $\mathbf{B}$ and constant magnetic diffusivity $\eta$, the magnetic induction equation isIt combines Faraday's law with the moving-conductor relation for electrical conductivity, neglecting displacement current. With incompressible flow, its advective form is ${\partial }_t\mathbf{B}+(\mathbf{u}\cdot \nabla )\mathbf{B}=(\mathbf{B}\cdot \nabla )\mathbf{u}+\eta {\nabla }^2\mathbf{B}$.
