Abstract:
The problem of plasma boundary reconstruction in relation to shape control was discussed. The different approaches to guaranteeing accuracy and robustness of plasma boundary control were presented. Deformable models provide a new formulation of the plasma boundary as a continuous contour, which facilitates more accurate estimation of global shape parameters, able to describe the plasma evolution in a realistic way. The results and analyses performed on JET and ITER support the validity of snake reconstruction methodology.
