    1. Main research topics (repeat for every major topic)

    Title

    Enhancement of plasma vertical stability of elongated plasmas with applications to ITER

    Short description (max. 200 words)

    Develop a new control algorithm for plasma vertical stabilization, based on modern control theory of minimum time response of a second order system to enhance plasma stability of very elongated plasmas with applications to ITER.

    Specific targets

    APCS Improvement and Exploitation

    Milestones

    −Integrate the simulation of the fast coils and plasma response with the control algorithm under development, running a full simulation of the closed loop cycle.

    −Implement the control algorithm into the Advanced Plasma Control System.

    −Test the control algorithm and implementation in the “real-world” by running and analyzing the results at the TCV Tokamak.
