Real-Time Applicability of Emulated Virtual Circuits for Tokamak Plasma Shape Control
Pedro Cavestany, Alasdair Ross, Adriano Agnello +5
Machine learning has recently been adopted to emulate sensitivity matrices for real-time magnetic control of tokamak plasmas. However, these approaches would benefit from a quantif…

Multiple solutions to the static forward free-boundary Grad-Shafranov problem on MAST-U
K. Pentland, N. C. Amorisco, P. E. Farrell +1
The Grad-Shafranov (GS) equation is a nonlinear elliptic partial differential equation that governs the ideal magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium of a tokamak plasma. Previous studies…
