Full textA field programmable gate array (FPGA) is used to decode Inter-Range Instrumentation Group (IRIG) time code for a PC-based Time-Space-Position Information (TSPI) acquisition. The FPGA architecture can latch time via an external event trigger or a programmable periodic internal event. By syncing time with an external IRIG Group Type B (IRIG-B) signal and using an 8 megahertz (MHz) internal clock, captured time has 125 nanosecond (ns) precision. A Range Instrumentation Control System (RICS) application utilizing the FPGA design to capture IRIG time is presented and test results show matching time accuracy when compared to commercial IRIG time capture hardware components.

One recent method to approach the capacity of a channel is Turbo Coding. However, a major concern with the implementation of a Turbo Code is the overall complexity and real-time throughput of the digital hardware system. The salient design problem of Turbo Coding is the iterative decoder, which must perform calculations over all possible states of the trellis. Complex computations such as exponentiations, logarithms and division are explored as part of this research to compare the complexity of the traditionally avoided maximum a-posteriori probability (MAP) decoder to that of the more widely accepted and simplified Logarithm based MAP decoder (LOG-MAP). This research considers the fine grained implementation and processing of MAP, LOG-MAP and a hybrid LOG-MAP-Log Likelihood Ratio (LLR) based Turbo Codes on a Xilinx Virtex 4 PGA. Verification of the Turbo Coding system performance is demonstrated on a Xilinx Virtex 4 ML402SX evaluation board with the EDA of the Xilinx System Generator utilizing hardware co-simulation. System throughput and bit error rate (BER) are the performance metrics that are evaluated as part of this research. An efficient system throughput is predicated by the parallel design of the decoder and BER is determined by data frame size, data word length and the number of decoding iterations. Furthermore, traditional and innovative stopping rules are evaluated as part of this research to facilitate the number of iterations required during decoding.

Full textI studied three optimization problems on graphs and combinatorial games.First, identifying codes were studied : vertices couteract faults. Identifying codes help locate the fault to repare it. We focused on circulant graphs by embedding them on infinite grids.Then, the marking and the coloring games were studied : two player games were one player wants to build something (a proper coloration or a proper marking) and the other wants to prevent the first player from doing so. For the marking game we studied the evolution of the strategy when modifying the graph. For the coloring game we defined a new edge-wise decomposition of graphs and we defined a new strategy on this decomposition that improves known results on planar graphs.In the end, I studied pure breaking games : two players take turns to break a heap of tokens in a given number of non-empty heaps. We focused on winning strategies for the game starting with a unique heap on n tokens. These games seem, on first sight, to be all regular : we showed this is the case for some of them and we gave a test to study one game at a time. Only one of these games does not seem to be regular, its behavior remains a mystery.To sum up, I studied three bilateral problems that use different methods and have different purposes in combinatorics

Full textIn tokamak plasmas, it is recognized that ion and electron micro- instabilities are held responsible for turbulence giving rise to anomalous transport. These limit particle and energy confinements in tokamak devices. This is the context of this work. The main objective is to have a better understanding of turbulence and thus of anomalous transport. It is known that the behaviour of trapped particles plays a major role in the development of turbulence via trapped ion mode (TIM) instability and trapped electron mode (TEM) instability. This work focus on the development of a model describing kinetic trapped particles (ions and electrons). The involved time scale is of the order of the trapped particle precession frequency which corresponds to characteristic frequency of TIM/TEM turbulence. The originality of this model is the reduction of the dimension from6D to 4D. This reduction is made by averaging over both the fast cyclotron motion and the bounce motion. In addition, using a set of action-angle variables allows one to deal with two parameters instead of two variables. The final model is 4D, dealing with two parameters and 2D space coordinates. The temperature and density gradients which trigger TIM and TEM instabilities are given by the linear analysis of the model. This analysis allows us to calculate the growth rates and frequencies associated with these instabilities. In order to solve the non-linear model describing both trapped kinetic ions and trapped kinetic electrons, we use the existing global code TERESA 4D including only trapped kinetic ions. The spatial and temporal scales associated to TIM and TEM turbulence are of the same order of magnitude. It allows us to include trapped electron kinetic response with very low numerical cost compared to the existing version. The TIM/TEM turbulence can be generated by this new code with low computational resources. Different typical structures observed in tokamak can be studied. This is the case of zonal flow and streamer structures which play a major role in anomalous transport. Finally, the influence of different parameters, such as banana width or electron to ion temperature ratio, is considered

This PhD work investigates the input of Monte Carlo code GATE as a toolkit for applications in internal dosimetry in a context of improvement of dosimetric methods. Within DosiTest project, which aims at evaluating the impact of the various steps contributing to the realization of a dosimetric study by means of a virtual multi-centric inter-comparison based on Monte-Carlo modelling, scintigraphic datasets were generated with GATE for two virtual patients (using XCAT and ICRP 110 models), for two different radiopharmaceuticals (OctreoscanTM and LutatheraTM) following a compartmental modelling of biodistribution. After a validation study of GATE for clinical internal dosimetry applications by a comparison with radiation transport code MCNPX, reference dosimetric calculations were performed with GATE

Full textA theoretical hamiltonian model has been developped by Volokitin and Krafft (2003), having for purpose the understanding of the interaction between the collective electrostatic modes of a magnetized plasma and fluxes of energetic particles propagating inside this plasma. A first part of this thesis work consisted in the realization of a numerical symplectic code, allowing us to solve the model's equations with a high accuracy on very long integration times. This model, and the related symplectic code, have been used in the frame of three original plasma physics problems : (i) Interesting ourselves in the non-linear phase of the bump-on-tail instability of a single wave, we showed that the dynamics of the particles in the stochastic layer were responsible for a transfer of energy from the particles to the wave, and thus for the observed growth of the wave amplitude. (ii) We studyied the situation in which two waves propagating with the same (or very close) resonant velocities interact with an electron beam. The charged particles dynamics in the electric field induces a coupling between the waves, resulting in low frequency energy exchanges that have been analytically studyied in this work. (iii) We studyied the linear and non-linear phases of the destabilization of a lower hybrid wave at the cyclotron resonance by energetic electrons presenting a « loss-cone » shaped distribution. Such distributions are frequently observed in magnetic trap devices (magnetosphere, solar wind, open ended containment machines)

Full textNumerical analyses of heated gas flows, particularly at low speeds, are often performed with the aid of simplifying assumptions. These restrictive assumptions represent the flow of a gas somewhat truncated in its real state and are not easy to validate. Therefore, the main objective of this work is to develop a numerical tool to validate the commonly used approximations. For this reason, a numerical code for variable-density flows is fully developed to study heated gases in natural, forced or mixed convection, in both laminar and transitional flow regimes. The dynamic and energy conservation equations are solved without simplifying assumptions (such as the Boussinesq approximation and the low Mach number approximation), in a non-radiative field and with negligible viscous dissipation. The ideal gas law is used as state law. The coupled set of equations is solved with an iterative predictor-corrector algorithm, which uses a second-order finite difference formulation for the spatial discretization, and the Crank-Nicolson method for the time discretization. The numerical method is validated using analytical solutions as well as the differentially heated cavity problem. Three flows of increasing numerical and physical complexity are then investigated. These flows physically progress from a confined flow (differentially heated closed cavity), then a semi-confined flow (backward facing step) to an open flow (a free-plane jet)

Full textWith the diffusion of new technology and the impact they caused, it became necessary to understand and use them in searching for ways to help both students and teachers in the teaching and learning processes. In this context, this research presents a development model that aims to assist teachers and developers in the elaboration of educational games. This model is named Model Gaia Abstraction Game, which employs cooperative gaming techniques and the theory of meaningful learning in order to support game development. As a case study, the model was used in the development of Gaia Abstraction Game OO, which aims to assist the teaching and learning process of the Object Orientation paradigm one of the most complex concepts in current computing theory. Since this paradigm works mostly with objects abstraction and classification, the concept is not always clear for the students, even though it is core for the initial subjects in computing courses. This study is grounded on researches of authors who approach the importance of games as facilitators in the learning process. The major contributions provided by this study are: stress that the game can help arouse students interest; make the classes dynamic and appealing; help students learn in a playful and pleasurable way; facilitate the mediation of knowledge; and create a mutual cooperation environment among students, promoting their full development through motivation.

Full textIdentifying codes were introduced in 1998 by Karpovsky, Chakrabarty and Levitin. An identifying code is a subgraph such that each vertex is uniquely identified by the vertices in its neighborhood. There are several variants of these codes, including a colored version where the vertices are identified by the colors in their neighborhood. In this phd, we want to build an identifying coloring of a large cycle, given a fixed number of colors. We also studied identified codes in a certain class of oriented graphs: tournaments. We have also studied some topics in the game theory. The first one is a generalization of octal games, where we play on a graph instead of a heap. More precisely, the 0.33 game; each player can remove one or two vertices in a graph, with no disconnection allowed. The first player who cannot play loses. We studied this game in some graph classes: subdivided stars and subdivided bistars. The other game is called the Firefighter game. It's a one player game, where this one wants to contain a spreading fire in a graph. We solved a conjecture about this game, and introduced the online version of the game, for which we found some approximation results

Full textIn proportion to the ton of cargo, shipping is a relatively “clean” transportation mode. Nevertheless, due to global trade intensification, its share in the global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions should increase. Aware that GHG adverse effects are a major concern for humanity, united nation member states impose, via the international maritime organization, a regulatory framework so that this vital sector in a global economy remains sustainable. Short (2020) and medium (2050)-term goals are set. According to the weak version of Porter’s hypothesis, strict environmental regulations encourage innovations. Hence, in the shipping industry solutions flourish among which the use of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) as a fuel. On a thermodynamic basis, the unavoidable heat leaks into the cryogenic tanks cause variations of the tank pressure and the natural gas quality at engine inlet. Depending on the ship’s operational profile, those two phenomena will impact significantly the LNG as a fuel option relevance. One major bottleneck slowing the uptake of LNG as a marine fuel is the lack of methods and models to perform, at a concept design level, the feasibility study. In response, this thesis proposes 0D models to assess from the operational profile:1. the tank pressure evolution;2. the gas quality evolution at engine inlet.In the first part, models are proposed to simulate heat leaks into the tanks, LNG vaporization, ageing (the alteration of natural gas thermophysical properties by a differentiate vaporization of its compounds) and methane number evolution at engine inlet. Then, the models are put together and applied on a case study. The ship concept is proposed by a freight company

Full textThe present work was devoted to the modeling of flows of plasma jets often used within the D. C. Plasma spraying technology by implementation of the CFD PHOENICSTm code. The definition of the different parameters of the study was made through the literature search, for example concerning the assumptions, the studied domain, the boundary conditions and the gas mixtures properties. The flow modelling, from the cold gases injection into the torch to the plasma ejection, not necessitates the use of equations of chemical species conservation because of the chemical equilibrium assumption which permits to use data from the literature where the thermodynamic data and the transport coefficients have been calculated from the chemical composition of gas mixtures and are given in function of the temperature and for the atmospheric pressure. The conservation equations are discretized by a finite volume approach and the non-linear and coupled set of algebraic equations is solved using the SIMPLEST algorithm implemented into the code. The comparison of the results with data from the literature shows a good agreement for the flow prediction of plasma jets. The model is applied to the study of the electric power value influence on the flow. The free thermal subsonic jets characteristics (temperature and velocity) are compared to observations taken from the literature. The study of the ambient gas entrainment gives a complementary information. The difficulty of approximation of the radial profiles at the torch exit by simple relationships is also put into evidence

Full textWhen an ultra-short ultra-intense laser impulsion propagates through a low density gas jet, a plasma is created and a bunch of electrons can be accelerated through laser wakefield acceleration to Gev energies in only a few centimetres. Those accelerated electrons then emit what is called Betatron radiation: a highly focused X-ray source with extremely good spatial and temporal properties, which has a lot of possible applications including ultra-high resolution imaging.In this thesis, we investigate possible improvements to one of the main numerical tools used to simulate those phenomenons: the Particle-In-Cell codes (CALDER). We have especially studied a numerical artefact called the numerical Cherenkov radiation, that occurs when relativistic particles move at speeds aproaching the speed of light in a vaccuum.We show that this artefact has a negative impact on the behaviour of the accelerated electron beam, especially on its transverse motion, which leads to important errors on the betatron radiation calculated using PIC simulations.We then introduce a new approach to mitigate the impact of this numerical Cherenkov radiation on laser wakefield acceleration simulation with a simple modification of the electromagnetic field interpolation method used in PIC codes. The results obtained with this new technique show a meaningful improvement on the electron motion wich becomes close to the theoretically expected behaviour.We then explore other possible applications for this new technique, notably improving the modelization of betatron sources, vacuum laser acceleration or direct laser acceleration.The improvement of the computation of the particles transverse motion thanks to this new method leads to more accurate results but also enables us to study physical phenomenon with subtle effects that would otherwise be hidden among the numerical noise of the simulation

Full textNumerical analysis is now a key component of research, especially for the understanding and the control of complex systems. Simulations of magnetic confinement plasmas fall within this approach. One of the difficulties of this field is the wide range of spatial scales, time scales, the chaotic nature of plasmas and the strong anisotropies require advanced numerical methods. Each of the two parts of my thesis takes place in this frame of numerical simulation and fusion plasmas.The first part of my thesis is dedicated to the method PoPe, a general method for code verification and model reduction. The principle of this method is to determine the equations which have generated a set of data. If the data was produced by a simulation tool, finding these equations and comparing them to the ones theoretically implemented is equivalent to verifying this simulation tool. The accuracy of this procedure allows to characterize the numerical error and to recover the order of each numerical scheme used.The second part of my thesis deals with the study of turbulent transport which determines the efficiency of fusion plasma. The chaotic avalanches of a fluid model are studied considering the impact of the chaos on the self-organization. For a kinetic model restricted to the low frequency instabilities, the ability to block itself in two regimes, one insulating and the other conducting, is studied. Upgrades of this model are undertaken in order to introduce the possibility of relaxations between the two previous states. For both the fluid and the kinetic model, reduce models are proposed thank to the PoPe method

Full textWe present a numerical study of sawtooth in ohmic tokamak plasmas with the XTOR-2F code. This study is, to our knowledge, the first to explore the long-term dynamics of the internal kink. Resistive MHD gives two regimes : stable oscillations or a saturated helicoidal state. Stabilizing diamagnetic drifts enable us to find sawteeth for pertinent experimental parameters. We also present the contributions made for the transition of the code toward the hybrid MHD-kinetic code XTOR-K, to include both kinetic and fluid effects. We chose a full-f, full-orbit kinetic model, coupled to the fluid part through a Newton-Krylov/Picard algorithm which is stable for the fundamental MHD modes. Orbit integration is done by the Boris algorithm, adapted in toroidal geometry. Invariants of motion do not accumulate numerically. Several methods, including a numerical temporal filter, are considered to reduce the noise on the particular pressure tensor
Shumba, Angela-Tafadzwa. "Channel coding on a nano-satellite platform." Thesis, Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2018. http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11838/2768.
Full textThe concept of forward error correction (FEC) coding introduced the capability of achieving near Shannon limit digital transmission with bit error rates (BER) approaching 10-9 for signal to noise power (Eb/No) values as low as 0.7. This brought about the ability to transmit large amounts of data at fast rates on bad/noisy communication channels. In nano-satellites, however, the constraints on power that limit the energy that can be allocated for data transmission result in significantly reduced communication system performance. One of the effects of these constraints is the limitation on the type of channel coding technique that can be implemented in these communication systems. Another limiting factor on nano-satellite communication systems is the limited space available due to the compact nature of these satellites, where numerous complex systems are tightly packed into a space as small as 10x10x10cm. With the miniaturisation of Integrated-Circuit (IC) technology and the affordability of Field-Programmable-Gate-Arrays (FPGAs) with reduced power consumption, complex circuits can now be implemented within small form factors and at low cost. This thesis describes the design, implementation and cost evaluation of a ½-rate convolutional encoder and the corresponding Viterbi decoder on an FPGA for nano-satellites applications. The code for the FPGA implementation is described in VHDL and implemented on devices from the Artix7 (Xilinx), Cyclone V (Intel-fpga), and Igloo2 (Microsemi) families. The implemented channel code has a coding gain of ~3dB at a BER of 10-3. It can be noted that the implementation of the encoder is quite straightforward and that the main challenge is in the implementation of the decoder.

Full textWe investigate terahertz (THz) generation in fs-laser-induced microplasmas, which are promising candidates for compact and efficient broadband THz sources (0.3-30 THz). Such sources have various applications as spectroscopic identification of hazardous substances or THz imaging in biology and medicine. Unlike conventional THz sources as photoconductive switches, gas-plasma-based THz sources do not suffer from irreversible material damage and can cover the whole THz range at once. To simulate tightly-focused-laser-induced microplasmas, we propose an efficient numerical algorithm that can introduce any arbitrarily shaped laser pulses into electromagnetic codes. We derive a Maxwell-consistent model that includes two major THz generation mechanisms, the ionization current (IC) and transition-Cherenkov mechanisms (TC). The latter mechanism is shown to dominate for single-color multi-cycle lasers pulses where the emission is driven by longitudinal electron currents. For microplasmas a constant electric field can boost the laser-to-THz converison efficiency by two orders of magnitude via the IC mechanism when increasing the gas-pressure and bias-voltage. Moreover for two-color-driving laser pulses, Maxwell-consistent 3D simulations show, that only 10 μJ laser pulse energy are sufficient to reach conversion efficiencies well above 10−4 when optimizing the focusing conditions. Here, the transverse nature of the IC currents is crucial for the up-scaling of the efficiency with the plasma length. By using elliptically-shaped two-color-driving laser beams, we propose to control the emission spectra by exploiting resonant plasmonic effects

Full textThe introduction of Turbo-codes in the early 90's and, more generally the iterative principle, has deeply modified the methods for the design of communication systems. This breakthrough has also resurrected the Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes invented by R. Gallager in 1963. Advanced channel coding techniques such as Turbo-codes and LDPC, are now increasingly considered for introduction into communication systems and standards. This evolution towards industrialization motivates the definition of new flexible and efficient decoding architecture for LDPC codes. In this thesis, we focus our research on the iterative decoding of LDPC codes and their hardware implementation. We first introduce basic concepts and notations for LDPC codes, which are necessary for a good comprehension. This introduction underlines the interest of jointly designing codes, decoding algorithm and architecture. From this perspective, a family of LDPC codes is described. We define some design rules to constrain the distance spectrum of the code. These constraints are introduced into a new algorithm for the design of the code working on a compact representation of the code graph. A new decoding algorithm is also defined, taking advantage of the intrinsic properties of the code structure. Convergence of the decoding algorithm is increased compared to classical decoding algorithm for LDPC codes. Performance and flexibility of this algorithm is discussed. Different architectures are then described and studied. Some constraints on the codes are derived to target an architecture. The last part of the thesis illustrates the implementation of one of the architectures discussed into a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). Performance and complexity measures are presented for various contexts, showing the interest of the concept for all these cases

Ett problem med FPGAer är att utvecklingen ställer höga krav på specifik kunskap gällande utvecklingsspråk och miljöer vilket för en person specialiserad inom t.ex. signalbehandling kan saknas helt. HLS är en metodik där högnivåspråk kan användas för digital design genom att nyttja ett verktyg för automatgenerering av kod. I detta arbete har utveckling av ett histogram använts som testfall för att utvärdera effektivitet samt designmetodik av tre olika HLS verktyg, HDL Coder till MATLAB, HDL Coder till Simulink och System Generator for DSP. Utvecklingen i dessa verktyg har jämförts mot utvecklingen av samma histogram i Vivado, där språket Verilog använts. Arbetets slutsater är att samtliga verktyg som testats leverar en arbetsfrekvens som är jämförbar med att skriva histogrammet direkt i Verilog, en minskad resursanvändning, utvecklingstid som minskat med 27% (HDL Coder i MATLAB), 45% (System Generator) och 64% (HDL Coder i Simulink) men med en ökad strömförbrukning. En sammanställning av instruktioner för utveckling med hjälp av verktygen har även gjorts.

Full textDans le code ARCHIMEDE (développé à l'E.N.S.M-S.E, Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Mines de Saint-Etienne, en collaboration avec l'I.F.P, Institut Français du Pétrole), seule la partie géochimie est concernée. Outre quelques difficultés qui empêchaient de traiter les variations de volume occasionnées par les réactions et que nous nous sommes efforcés de résoudre en reprenant l'ensemble du programme, l'objectif principal de ce travail de thèse a été la conception et l'implémentation d'un modèle de germination/mûrissement/croissance pour les minéraux secondaires.
Notre démarche a consisté à analyser précisément l'apparition de nouveaux minéraux dans des assemblages naturels d'où ils sont absents initialement. Quelques simulations numériques ont permis de montrer les limites inhérentes à la représentation, inadaptée, de la précipitation de ce genre de minéraux par croissance cristalline. La mise en avant de ces faiblesses a défini alors le cadre pour un nouveau modèle de précipitation propre aux minéraux secondaires. Une étude détaillée de la phase de germination, à savoir l'apparition des premiers cristaux d'un minéral, a conduit à la construction d'un modèle pour sa cinétique. Par suite, la mise en compétition du processus de germination avec celui de croissance, destiné à prendre plus tard le relais de la production de volume du nouveau solide, a nécessité la prise en charge de cristaux de tailles variées et le recours au mûrissement d'Ostwald, via un calcul parallèle. Il en a résulté un algorithme élaboré pour gérer, pour chaque minéral secondaire, la phase initiale de germination/mûrissement et ensuite le passage à la phase de croissance cristalline. La sensibilité de ce nouveau modèle complet de germination/mûrissement/croissance vis-à-vis des différents paramètres qui le composent a pu être analysée moyennant de nouvelles simulations numériques. Son comportement, en terme d'acuité des prédictions, a également pu être mis à l'épreuve et finalement jugé satisfaisant.

Full textThis work deals the modeling of a dc pulsed diode type discharge used for iron and steel nitriding. The present research aimed at a better understanding of the processes occuring in such plasmas in order to attain an optimization of the surface treatment process. In a first stage we adapted an existing electrical modeling to the experimental results obtained from electrostatic probe and emission spectroscopy measurements. These preliminary results showed a roughly good agreement between the modeling and the experiment and pointed out the limits of this simulation. Two improvements have thus been made to this basic model: a better description of the electron population using a monoenergetic electron beam ; a coupling with a modeling of the neutral gas dynamics. The first improvement led to a better description of the various regions of the discharge (in particular the negative glow) and to get an excellent agreement between numerical and experimental results in the case of short duration impulse discharges. The second improvement showed the importance and the need for taking into account the heating of neutral gas in the case of discharge on-time greater than a few hundreds of microseconds

Full textThis work is devoted to the experimental study, the modelling and the numerical simulation of the hydrodynamics of a bubble column and an external loop airlift reactor. It includes three parts. First, measuring techniques have been developed to study the local and global hydrodynamic parameters of the bubbly flow. In this section, several treatments of the fluctuating wall pressure signal have been developed to identify the prevailing flow regime; three measuring techniques have been adapted to bubbly flows in order to measure the local velocity of the continuous phase: the "Pavlov" tube, an electrochemical method and Laser Doppler Velocimetry. These techniques have completed the methods already available to study the dynamics of the gas phase: local optical probes and an ultrasound Doppler technique. Then, this set of measuring techniques has been used to characterise the hydrodynamics in both reactors. Regime transitions have been deterrnined. The local and global parameters which have been measured are: the gas hold-up; the velocity, the size and the morphology of the bubbles; the liquid velocity and its local fluctuations. The Reynolds shear stress, which could not be measured, has been estimated using a simple model. The evolution of these parameters has been related to the gas flow rate, the gas distribution and the hydrodynamic regime. The whole experimental data are finally compared to the predicted values obtained using a commercial CFD code. Several models of drag, additional forces and turbulence have been used to obtain the best agreement between calculations and experiments. The ability of this commercial code to predict correctly the flow and its current limits have been highlighted

Full textIn the scope of designing future nuclear fusion reactors, a clear understanding of the plasma-wall interaction is mandatory. Indeed, a predictive estimation of heat flux impacting the surface and the subsequent emission of impurities from the wall is necessary to ensure material integrity and energy confinement performances. In that perspective, the fluid code SolEdge2D has been developed to simulate plasma transport in the tokamak edge plasma. The plasma-wall interaction is modeled using an innovative penalization technique. This method enables in particular to take complex plasma facing components geometry into account. In parallel to this numerical effort, a theoretical work has been achieved to find appropriate corrections to fluid closures when collisionality drops. The study of stochastic 1D models has been realized in collaboration with physicists from the CSDC group in Florence. A generalized Fourier law taking long range spatio-temporal correlations has been found to properly account for ballistic transport in the low collisional regime. This formulation is expected to be used to model parallel heat flux or turbulent cross-field transport in tokamak plasmas

Full textIn hot dense plasmas, the free-electron and ion spatial distribution may strongly affect the atomic structure. To account for such effects we have implemented a potential correction based on the uniform electron gas model and on a Thomas-Fermi Approach in the Flexible Atomic Code (FAC). This code has been applied to obtain energies, wave-functions and radiative rates modified by the plasma environment. In hydrogen-like ions, these numerical results have been successfully compared to an analytical calculation based on first-order perturbation theory. In the case of multi-electron ions, we observe level crossings in agreement with another recent model calculation. Various methods for the collision cross-section calculations are reviewed. The influence of plasma environment on these cross-sections is analyzed in detail. Some analytical expressions are proposed for hydrogen-like ions in the limit where Born or Lotz approximations apply and are compared to the numerical results from the FAC code. Finally, from this work, we study the influence of the plasma environment on our collisional-radiative model so-called -Foch-. Because of this environment, the mean charge state of the ions increases. The line shift is observed on the bound-bound emission spectra. A good agreement is found between our work and experimental data on a Titanium plasma
