Curved geometries have recently raised significant interest due to novel effects occurring when the curvature of the geometry influences the spin dynamics which is highly relevant for shapeable spintronics applications [1]. One of the first curved geometries that has been intensively investigated is the ring geometry since it exhibits special switching properties and also it is an ideal playground to study confined spin structures such as domain walls [2] and it may be appropriate for technological applications such as MRAM. The special curved geometry of a ring allows one to use a fully flux-closure vortex state to store bits and to switch between states of opposite circulation using uniaxial fields [3], the concept of automation is used [4]. Automotion relies on energy gradients generated by geometrical gradients as implemented in varying curvature rings [5] where one can tailor the dynamics and in particular the domain wall velocities.
