Tokamakthumb|Vue intérieure du tore du Tokamak à configuration variable (TCV), dont les parois sont recouvertes de tuiles de graphite. Un tokamak est un dispositif de confinement magnétique expérimental explorant la physique des plasmas et les possibilités de produire de l'énergie par fusion nucléaire. Il existe deux types de tokamaks aux caractéristiques sensiblement différentes, les tokamaks traditionnels toriques (objet de cet article) et les tokamaks sphériques.
Analyse des exigencesEn ingénierie des systèmes et en ingénierie logicielle, l'analyse des exigences comprend les tâches qui ont pour but de déterminer les exigences d'un système nouveau ou à modifier, en prenant en compte le conflit possible entre les exigences de diverses parties prenantes, telles que les utilisateurs. L'analyse des exigences est critique pour le succès d'un projet. Les interviews de parties prenantes sont une méthode communément employée dans l'analyse des exigences.
GyrotronA gyrotron is a class of high-power linear-beam vacuum tubes that generates millimeter-wave electromagnetic waves by the cyclotron resonance of electrons in a strong magnetic field. Output frequencies range from about 20 to 527 GHz, covering wavelengths from microwave to the edge of the terahertz gap. Typical output powers range from tens of kilowatts to 1–2 megawatts. Gyrotrons can be designed for pulsed or continuous operation. The gyrotron was invented by Soviet scientists at NIRFI, based in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia.
Non-functional requirementIn systems engineering and requirements engineering, a non-functional requirement (NFR) is a requirement that specifies criteria that can be used to judge the operation of a system, rather than specific behaviours. They are contrasted with functional requirements that define specific behavior or functions. The plan for implementing functional requirements is detailed in the system design. The plan for implementing non-functional requirements is detailed in the system architecture, because they are usually architecturally significant requirements.
Business requirementsBusiness requirements, also known as stakeholder requirements specifications (StRS), describe the characteristics of a proposed system from the viewpoint of the system's end user like a CONOPS. Products, systems, software, and processes are ways of how to deliver, satisfy, or meet business requirements. Consequently, business requirements are often discussed in the context of developing or procuring software or other systems. Three main reasons for such discussions: A common practice is to refer to objectives, or expected benefits, as 'business requirements.
Requirements engineeringRequirements engineering (RE) is the process of defining, documenting, and maintaining requirements in the engineering design process. It is a common role in systems engineering and software engineering. The first use of the term requirements engineering was probably in 1964 in the conference paper "Maintenance, Maintainability, and System Requirements Engineering", but it did not come into general use until the late 1990s with the publication of an IEEE Computer Society tutorial in March 1997 and the establishment of a conference series on requirements engineering that has evolved into the International Requirements Engineering Conference.
Exigence (ingénierie)Une est, dans le domaine de l'ingénierie, un besoin, une nécessité, une attente auquel un produit ou un service doit répondre ou une contrainte qu'il doit satisfaire. L'exigence peut être exprimée par une partie prenante (utilisateur, client, commercial, analyste de marchés, gestionnaire de produits, etc.) ou déterminée par les processus d'ingénierie et en particulier les activités d'études. L'approche commune à tous les domaines d'ingénierie est de définir les besoins, d'envisager des solutions, et de livrer la solution la plus appropriée.
Énergie de fusion nucléairevignette| L'expérience de fusion magnétique du Joint European Torus (JET) en 1991. L'énergie de fusion nucléaire est une forme de production d'électricité du futur qui utilise la chaleur produite par des réactions de fusion nucléaire. Dans un processus de fusion, deux noyaux atomiques légers se combinent pour former un noyau plus lourd, tout en libérant de l'énergie. De telles réactions se produisent en permanence au sein des étoiles. Les dispositifs conçus pour exploiter cette énergie sont connus sous le nom de réacteurs à fusion nucléaire.
Software requirementsSoftware requirements for a system are the description of what the system should do, the service or services that it provides and the constraints on its operation. The IEEE Standard Glossary of Software Engineering Terminology defines a requirement as: A condition or capability needed by a user to solve a problem or achieve an objective. A condition or capability that must be met or possessed by a system or system component to satisfy a contract, standard, specification, or other formally imposed document.
Software requirements specificationA software requirements specification (SRS) is a description of a software system to be developed. It is modeled after the business requirements specification (CONOPS). The software requirements specification lays out functional and non-functional requirements, and it may include a set of use cases that describe user interactions that the software must provide to the user for perfect interaction.
