Direct and inverse electromagnetic methodologies: the proposal of MADEND project for ECT analysis (2008)

P. Bettini, E. Cardelli, M. Cioffi, P. Di Barba, A. Faba, F. Ferraioli, ...

We present here some original methodologies for the solution of the direct and the inverse problems in Eddy Current Testing (ECT), developed or improved in the framework of the MADEND (Methods and...

ELMS and strike point jumps (2005)

Solano, E. R., Jachmich, S., Villone, F., Hawkes, N., Corre, Y., Pitts, R. A., ...

If an ELM is a peeling of flux surfaces from the plasma, due to a broken separatrix, current density is lost as well as particles and energy. The fast loss of a current-carrying plasma layer modifies...

Overview of JET results (2003)

Pamela, J., Solano, E. R., Adams, J. M., Agarici, G., Agarici, M., Akhter, H., ...

Scientific and technical activities on JET focus on the issues likely to affect the ITER design and operation. Our understanding of the ITER reference mode of operation, the ELMy H-mode, has...

Upgrade of the present JET shape and vertical stability controller (2003)

Crisanti, F., Albanese, R., Ambrosino, G., Ariola, M., Lister, J., Mattei, M., ...

The development of linear model of the present JET (Joint European Torus) electromagnetic system has allowed the design of an optimized Plasma Shape Controller. Quite extreme plasma boundaries...

Linear and non-linear plasma equilibrium responses on the JT-60U and TCV tokamaks (2001)

Lister, J. B., Khayrutdinov, R., Limebeer, D. J. N., Lukash, V., Nakamura, Y., Sharma, A., ...

Although linear response models are useful for feedback controller design, their linear time-invariant properties cannot simulate the evolution of a full plasma discharge. A suitable code for this...

Measurement of the open loop plasma equilibrium response in TCV (1999)

Coutlis, A., Bandyopadhyay, I., Lister, J. B., Vyas, P., Albanese, R., Limebeer, D. J. N., ...

A new technique and results are presented for the estimation of the open loop frequency response of the plasma on TCV. Voltages were applied to poloidal field coils and the resulting plasma current,...

A modern plasma controller tested on the TCV tokamak (1999)

Ariola, M., Ambrosino, G., Lister, J. B., Pironti, A., Villone, F., Vyas, P.

A high-order, multivariable, modern plasma controller has been designed using H-infinity optimal control techniques and tested oil the Tokamak Configuration Variable (TCV) tokamak. An initial design...

The separatrix response of diverted TCV plasmas compared with the predictions of the CREATE-L model (1998)

Vyas, P., Villone, F., Lister, J. B., Albanese, R.

The response of ohmic, single null diverted (SND), non-centred plasmas in TCV to poloidal field coil stimulation has been compared with the predictions of the linear CREATE-L MHD equilibrium response...

Comparison of the CREATE-L plasma response model with TCV limited discharges (1997)

Villone, F., Vyas, P., Lister, J. B., Albanese, R.

Experiments have been performed on the TCV tokamak to evaluate the response of ohmic, L mode, limited, vertically unstable plasmas to changes in all the poloidal field coil voltages. The resulting...
