An efficient method to control the amplitude of the limit cycle in satellite attitude control system
In this paper, an efficient method is presented to control the attitude of a satellite with ON-OFF actuator. The main objective of this novel method is to control the amplitude of the limit cycle which commonly appears in the steady state of such systems; and at the same time by consideration of real actuator constraints, reduce the fuel consumption of system. The Proposed method is a combinati...
متن کاملOne-dimensional modelling of limit-cycle oscillation and H-mode power scaling
To understand the connection between the dynamics of microscopic turbulence and the macroscale power scaling in the L–I–H transition in magnetically confined plasmas, a new time-dependent, one-dimensional (in radius) model has been developed. The model investigates the radial force balance equation at the edge region of the plasma and applies the quenching effect of turbulence via the E × B flo...
متن کاملZonal flows and transient dynamics of the L-H transition.
We elucidate the role of zonal flows in transient phenomena observed during L-H transition by studying a simple L-H transition model which contains the evolution of zonal flows, mean ExB flows, and the ion pressure gradient. Zonal flows are shown to trigger the L-H transition and cause time-transient behavior through the self-regulation of turbulence before a mean shearing, due to a steep press...
متن کاملDynamics of L–H transition and I-phase in EAST
The turbulence and flows at the plasma edge during the L–I–H, L–I–L and single-step L–H transitions have been measured directly using two reciprocating Langmuir probe systems at the outer midplane with several newly designed probe arrays in the EAST superconducting tokamak. The E × B velocity, turbulence level and turbulent Reynolds stress at ∼1 cm inside the separatrix ramp-up in the last ∼20 ...
متن کاملNoise-driven transition to quasi-deterministic limit cycle dynamics in excitable systems
The effect of small-amplitude noise on excitable systems with large time-scale separation is analyzed. It is found that small random perturbations of the fast excitatory variable result in the onset of a quasi-deterministic limit cycle behavior, absent without noise. The limit cycle is established at a critical value of the amplitude of the noise, and its period is nontrivially determined by th...
