Sawtooth-triggered limit-cycle oscillations and I-phase in the HL-2A tokamak
Transitions between low (L-mode) and intermediate (I-phase) confinement regimes triggered by sawteeth are investigated by using multiple Langmuir probe arrays in the edge plasmas of the HL-2A tokamak. The I-phase is characterized by limit cycle oscillations (LCOs). Repeated L-I-L transitions induced by sawtooth heat pulses are also observed. The statistical analyses show that the delay time of ...
متن کاملEnergy Conservative Limit Cycle Oscillations
This paper shows how globally attractive limit cycle oscillations can be induced in a system with a nonlinear feedback element. Based on the same principle as the Van der Pol oscillator, the feedback behaves as a negative damping for low velocities but as an ordinary damper for high velocities. This nonlinear damper can be physically implemented with a continuous variable transmission and a spr...
متن کاملLimit Cycle Oscillations of a Complete Aircraft
This paper presents results for the aeroelastic stability and LCO behavior for a complete aircraft. Comparison are presented between the results predicted by a cantilevered wing model, an untrimmed aircraft model (no gravity or drag) and a trimmed aircraft model. It is seen that the stability behavior is predicted accurately only if the correct trim loads are applied to the wing. The LCO behavi...
متن کاملSensitivity analysis of limit cycle oscillations
Many unsteady problems equilibrate to periodic behavior. For these problems the sensitivity of periodic outputs to system parameters are often desired, and must be estimated from a finite time or frequency domain calculation. Sensitivities computed in the time domain over a finite time span can take excessive time to converge, or fail altogether to converge to the periodic value. We derive a th...
متن کاملMagnetosphere sawtooth oscillations induced by ionospheric outflow.
The sawtooth mode of convection of Earth's magnetosphere is a 2- to 4-hour planetary-scale oscillation powered by the solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere (SW-M-I) interaction. Using global simulations of geospace, we have shown that ionospheric O(+) outflows can generate sawtooth oscillations. As the outflowing ions fill the inner magnetosphere, their pressure distends the nightside magnetic fi...
