A machine-learning-based tool for last closed-flux surface reconstruction on tokamaks

Chenguang Wan, Zhi Yu, Alessandro Pau +2

Nuclear fusion represents one of the best alternatives for a sustainable source of clean energy. Tokamaks allow to confine fusion plasma with magnetic fields and one of the main ch…

First-principles density limit scaling in tokamaks based on edge turbulent transport and implications for ITER

M. Giacomin, A. Pau, P. Ricci +2

A first-principles scaling law, based on turbulent transport considerations, and a multi-machine database of density limit discharges from the ASDEX Upgrade, JET and TCV tokamaks,…

EAST discharge prediction without integrating simulation results

Chenguang Wan, Zhi Yu, Alessandro Pau +2

In this work, a purely data-driven discharge prediction model was developed and tested without integrating any data or results from simulations. The model was developed based on th…

Plasma Confinement Mode Classification Using a Sequence-to-Sequence Neural Network With Attention

Francisco Matos, Vlado Menkovski, Alessandro Pau +2

In a typical fusion experiment, the plasma can have several possible confinement modes. At the TCV tokamak, aside from the Low (L) and High (H) confinement modes, an additional mod…

Integrated real-time supervisory management for off-normal-event handling and feedback control of tokamak plasmas

T. Vu, F. Felici, C. Galperti +7

For long-pulse tokamaks, one of the main challenges in control strategy is to simultaneously reach multiple control objectives and to robustly handle in real-time (RT) unexpected e…

Classification of tokamak plasma confinement states with convolutional recurrent neural networks

F. Matos, V. Menkovski, F. Felici +2

During a tokamak discharge, the plasma can vary between different confinement regimes: Low (L), High (H) and, in some cases, a temporary (intermediate state), called Dithering (D).…
