Plasma turbulence plays a fundamental role in determining the performances of magnetic confinement fusion devices, such as tokamaks. Advances in computer science, combined with the development of efficient physical models, have significantly improved our u ...
A numerically efficient framework that takes into account the effect of the Coulomb collision operator at arbitrary collisionalities is introduced. Such a model is based on the expansion of the distribution function on a Hermite-Laguerre polynomial basis t ...
Drift-waves (DW) are low-frequency modes that arise in a magnetized plasma when a finite pressure gradient is present. In order to become unstable, DW require some form of dissipation, such as finite resistivity, electron inertia or wave-particle resonance ...
Long lies after a fall remain a public health challenge. Many successful fall prevention programmes have been developed but only few of them include recovery strategies after a fall. Once better understood, such movement strategies could be implemented int ...
A four-dimensional plasma model able to describe the scrape-off layer region of tokamak devices at arbitrary collisionality is derived in the drift-reduced limit. The basis of the model is provided by a drift-kinetic equation that retains the full nonlinea ...
A decomposition of multicorrelation sequences for commuting transformations along primes, Discrete Analysis 2021:4, 27 pp. Szemerédi's theorem asserts that for every positive integer k and every δ>0 there exists n such that every subset of ${1, ...
We present a convergence study of the gyromoment (GM) approach, which is based on projecting the gyrokinetic distribution function onto a Hermite–Laguerre polynomial basis, focused on the cyclone base case (CBC) (Lin et al., Phys. Rev. Lett., vol. 83, no. ...
The existing derivations of conventional fast RLS adaptive filters are intrinsically dependent on the shift structure in the input regression vectors. This structure arises when a tapped-delay line (FIR) filter is used as a modeling filter. In this paper, ...
