Profiles of power deposition on the first wall of the Joint European Torus (JET) tokamak experiment are fitted by tracing an analytic representation for the distribution of power from midplane along lines of magnetic field. The technique is used to help design plasma facing components (PFCs) in reactor-scale magnetic confinement devices, hence un…

Abstract. A novel approach for efficient representation of three-dimensional (3D) tokamak equilibria is investigated, where a set of helical current filaments occupying the plasma region are employed to resolve deviations from the two-dimensional (2D) axi-symmetric state. A discrete set of 3D filaments, located at rational surfaces for a given t…

Tritium inventory build-up is a safety issue for next step devices. JET brings a unique contribution on fuel retention and recovery in a metallic device, as it has operated both in deuterium (D) and deuterium-tritium (DT) plasmas. This paper will provide an overview of results from JET in this fi…

It is challenging to find optimum kinematic designs for non-standard robotic manipulators, e.g., medical, nuclear, and space manipulators, which are demanded to adapt to arbitrary complex tasks in constraints. Such design optimization can be modelled as a multi-dimensional non-convex optimization problem with nonlinear constrained conditions. Howev…

This study presents results from particle transport modelling for D/T ratio control experiments conducted during the JET DTE3 campaign. TRANSP interpretative and JETTO predictive simulations for D and T densities were performed and their results are discussed. Despite using simplified models based on Bohm-gyroBohm transport, the simulations inco…

An analytical model is developed to compute the transport of col- lisionless particles in a Neutral beam system. It takes account both the spatial variation and velocity divergence at the beam source; also obstructions at the edge of the beam. Non-Gaussian distributions are modelled using a collection of Gaussian basis functions. Two- dimensio…

The separation of lithium and the fractionation of the isotopes by solvent extraction was studied, using benzo-15-crown-5 as an extractant dissolved in a diluent of an ionic liquid and anisole. Equilibrium experiments were carried out in stirred vessels while continuous flow experiments were performed in small channels with 0.5 mm diameter. In the …

A quasi-linear reduced transport model is developed from a database of high-β electromagnetic nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations performed with Spherical Tokamak for Energy Production (STEP) relevant parameters. This reduced transport model is based on a quasi-linear metric computed from linear gyrokinetic simulations and accounts for the effect of…

High-shear methods have long been used in experiments to refine grain structures in metals, yet the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. We demonstrate a refinement process using molecular dynamic simulations, wherein nanocrystalline structures are generated from initially perfect lattices under high-shear strain. The simulation cells undergo a hi…
