The Tokamak concept, based on magnetic confinement of a hydrogen plasma, is one of today's most promising paths to energy production by nuclear fusion. The experimental scenarios leading to the largest fusion rate are based on a high confinement plasma reg ...
Energy is essential for human existence and our future depends on plentiful and accessible sources of energy. The world population is fast growing and the average energy used per capita increases. One of the greatest challenges for human beings is that of ...
Efficient, real-time and unsupervised data analysis is one of the key elements for achieving scientific success in complex engineering and physical systems, of which three examples are the currently operating Joint European Torus (JET) and the soon-to-be-b ...
We study the problem of distributed detection, where a set of nodes is required to decide between two hypotheses based on available measurements. We seek fully distributed and adaptive implementations, where all nodes make individual real-time decisions by ...
The ITER plasma control system (PCS) will play a central role in enabling the experimental program to attempt to sustain DT plasmas with Q = 10 for several hundred seconds and also support research toward the development of steady-state operation in ITER. ...
A previous study, of Wenk, 2011, showed, in the case of a simple heat exchanger model, inconsistencies between optimization results with different investment decision criteria. As a result, a deep analysis of the state of the art in financial decision maki ...
This is the second in a series of three columns summarizing the "Trends" expert sessions organized by the Signal Processing Society Technical Committees during ICASSP 2011 in Prague, Czech Republic. Readers have an opportunity to access these Trends sessio ...
In magnetically confined fusion devices, the energy and particle transport is significantly larger than expected from purely collisional processes. This degraded confinement mostly results from small-scale turbulence and prevents from reaching self-sustain ...
Early tokamaks with circular cross-section plasmas were vertically stable in nature and no problems were reported on the control of the vertical position. However, the concept of vertically elongated plasma cross-section, with benefits to the energy confin ...
The scope of the IEEE Signal Processing Theory and Methods (SPTM) Technical Committee has a broad span, ranging from digital filtering and adaptive signal processing to statistical signal analysis, estimation, and detection. There have also been significan ...
