There is an increasing need for integrating individual plasma-control algorithms with the ultimate goal of simultaneously regulating more than one plasma property. Some of these integrated-control solutions should have the capability of arbitrating t

In this work, model-based control techniques are used to obtain target current profiles in low-confinement-mode (L-mode) as well as high-confinement-mode (H-mode) DIII-D discharges. The control problem is formulated as a trajectory optimization probl

A control-oriented, two-timescale, linear, dynamic, response model of the rotational transform ι profile and the normalized beta βN is proposed based on experimental data from the DIII-D tokamak. Dedicated system-identification experiments without

One of the most promising candidates to produce clean nuclear fusion energy is the tokamak, a device magnetically confining an extremely hot plasma (i.e. an ionized gas) where the fusion reactions take place. To produce nuclear fusion energy using to

Tokamak plasma rotation is widely recognized for its importance to heat confinement and plasma stability. In this work we consider control of the plasma rotation profile with the aim of building a control strategy suitable for testing various rotatio

Control of the current profile in tokamak plasmas has been shown to play an important role in achieving advanced scenarios that could enable steady-state operation. The nonlinearity and spatially distributed nature of the current profile dynamics mot

Efficient, high-gain operation of a tokamak device requires the achievement of certain radial shapes for the toroidal current profile. The evolution in time of the toroidal current profile in tokamaks is related to the evolution of the poloidal magne

Active closed-loop control of the plasma safety factor profile ( q -profile) and internal energy dynamics in nuclear fusion tokamak devices has the potential to significantly impact the success of the ITER project. These plasma properties are related
