A practical tuning method is proposed via frequency response or even cut-off frequency for
active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) of distributed parameter systems (DPSs), whose …

A controller is designed for the tokamak safety factor profile that takes real-time-varying
operational and physics limits into account. This so-called model predictive controller (MPC) …

In thermal engineering, maintaining the temperature precisely at a desired setpoint is an
essential objective for many processes. When heating actuators act locally and a few point …

This paper describes an identification technique for control-oriented linear time-invariant
models of the coupled dynamics of the electron temperature and the poloidal magnetic flux …

A control-oriented, two-timescale, linear, dynamic, response model of the rotational
transform ι profile and the normalized beta β N is proposed based on experimental data from …

Null controllability of nonlinear partial differential equation is a very complex challenge. The
context underlying this study is to improve the behavior of the plasma in a tokamak reactor in …

The objective of this thesis is to propose new methods for analysis and control of partial
differential equations that describe the coupling between the transport models of the …

One of the most promising candidates to produce clean nuclear fusion energy is the
tokamak, a device magnetically confining an extremely hot plasma (ie an ionized gas) where …

This paper deals with the problem of null controllability for an unstable nonlinear parabolic
partial differential equation (PDE) system considering in-domain actuator. The main …
