Integration concept of an Electron Cyclotron System in DEMO

René Chavan, Minh Quang Tran, Hartmut Zohm, Konstantinos Avramidis

The pre-conceptual layout for an electron cyclotron system (ECS) in DEMO is described. The present DEMO ECS considers only equatorial ports for both plasma heating and neoclassical tearing mode (NTM) control. This differs from ITER, where four launchers in ...

Time-Synchronization Attacks against Critical Infrastructures and their Mitigation

Marguerite Marie Nathalie Delcourt

This work focuses on the security of critical infrastructures against time-synchronization attacks (TSA). A TSA can impact any network that relies on the dynamic analysis of data, by altering the time synchronization between its nodes. Such attacked networ ...

State of the Art on Computational Design of Assemblies with Rigid Parts

Mark Pauly, Peng Song

An assembly refers to a collection of parts joined together to achieve a specific form and/or functionality. Designing assemblies is a non-trivial task as a slight local modification on a part's geometry or its joining method could have a global impact on ...
