  1. 1. Implementation of Fast Real-Time Control of Unstable Modes in Fusion Plasma Devices

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Martin Lundberg; [2017]
    Keywords : Fusion plasma; MHD control; CUDA;

    Abstract : In recent years, multi-core graphics processing units (GPUs) have been increasingly used by researchers for other purposes than rendering graphics. This thesis presents the implementation of GPU computing for real-time control of plasma instabilities known as resistive wall modes at the EXTRAP T2R fusion plasma device. READ MORE

  2. 2. Development of Resistive MHD Code in Cylindrical Geometry and its Applications on EXTRAP T2R

    University essay from KTH/Fusionsplasmafysik

    Author : Cristian Gleason-González; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A resistive magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) code is presented in detail for a cylindrical plasma column surrounded by a perfect conducting wall. The objective is to develop a full eigenvalue problem solver with resistive wall type boundary conditions that can be integrated into the feedback control algorithms of the EXTRAP T2R reversed field pinch (RFP).
