Controllability analysis for current profile control in tokamaks
Abstract-- The control of the toroidal current density spatial profile in tokamak plasmas will be absolutely critical in future commercial-grade reactors to enable high fusion gain...

Control of ramp-up current profile dynamics in tokamak plasmas via the minimal-surface theory
The central task of current profile control during the ramp-up phase of a tokamak discharge is to find the actuator trajectories that are necessary to achieve certain desired curre...

Open and emerging control problems in tokamak plasma control
— The tokamak concept for magnetic confinement of fusion plasmas is now quite mature scientifically. This maturity is evidenced by the ongoing worldwide effort to design and cons...

Real-Time Control of a Tokamak Plasma Using Neural Networks
In this paper we present results from the first use of neural networks for real-time control of the high temperature plasma in a tokamak fusion experiment. The tokamak is currentl...

Plasma vertical stabilization with actuation constraints in the DIII-D tokamak
In the advanced tokamak (AT) operating mode of the DIII-D tokamak, an integrated multivariable controller takes into account highly coupled influences of plasma equilibrium shape,...
