        Summary
        In this thesis we consider dynamics of skyrmions driven by the Spin Hall effect, in particular in finite systems. We look at the interaction of a skyrmion with the boundary of the system. We find that the magnetization at the edge is tilted, which is expected to lead to a repulsive potential that tends to push the skyrmions away from the edge.
