Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
This paper focuses on applications in the area of WAMS (wide area measurement systems) and WACS (wide area control systems) development. A main issue is the report of an international cooperation oriented to test new algorithms and methods in this field. A ...
The control of the current, position and shape of an elongated cross-section tokamak plasma is complicated by the so-called instability of the current vertical position. Linearized models all share the feature of a single unstable eigenmode, attributable t ...
Gyrokinetic calculations with the GS2 code of impurity transport in ASDEX Upgrade H-mode plasmas are presented. A method to separate the diagonal and off-diagonal terms in the quasi-linear flux computed by the gyrokinetic code for a trace impurity is intro ...
A high performance system, specially designed for real-time plasma control and event detection on fusion experiments has been developed by the Centro de Fusao Nuclear of the Instituto Superior Tecnico (CFN/IST). Presently it is being integrated into the ad ...
The present study examined, in children aged 4-11 and in adults, the postural control modifications when attention was oriented voluntary on postural sway. Since (1) there are less attentional resources in children than in adults, (2) the selective attenti ...
Real time control of the plasma elongation and plasma current using electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) actuators has been demonstrated on TCV. Tokamak plasmas may be elongated by off-axis ECRH. The associated flattening of the current density prof ...
This paper presents the hardware and software approach to replacing the current analogue linear feedback system on the TCV Tokamak with a DSP based system to allow for non-linear control. After preliminary combination, over 120 control signals are reduced ...
This paper focuses on interpreting variations in the NPA measured energy distribution of neutral fluxes from the TCV high density H-mode plasma discharges with strong third harmonic electron cyclotron heating (P_{X3}>P_{\Omega}). Two quasi-stationary regim ...
The transport of particles in magnetically confined plasmas is of great importance for the development of fusion energy. It will determine techniques for fuelling, for controlling impurity concentrations and for the removal of the alpha particles produced ...
Introducing automatic control has always been challenging. As a technology, control is generally hidden by the enclosing application. As a methodology, control is often seen as a theoretical subject. Therefore, to grasp the interest of both practitioners e ...
