Plasma Physics and Fusion

Submitted by zennaro2 on

Tokamaks are among the most promising devices for obtaining nuclear fusion energy from a high-temperature, ionized gas (plasma).In tokamaks, there are two components of the confining magnetic field. A set of toroidal field coils, evenly spaced around the torus provides a strong toroidal magnetic field that is kept constant during the whole discharge and provides for plasma stability. The second component, the poloidal field, is responsible for the equilibrium of the plasma. It is produced by the plasma current and can be shaped by using the set of Poloidal Field Coils.

Adaptive Optics

Adaptive optics (AO) is used in astronomy to obtain high resolution images, close to diffraction limited, of stars and galaxies with ground telescopes, otherwise blurred by atmospheric turbulence.In order to succesfully compensate for the distorsion induced by athmospheric turbulence one (or more) deformable mirros are deformed; the control action used measurements of the wavefront distorsion.Next generation AO systems have thousand of sensors and actuators and as such pose non-trivial issues both for modeling and control.In this respect, it is important to predict the turbulent phase affec

Bioengineering

Submitted by zennaro2 on

Bioengineering is an interdisciplinary field whose main goals are the improvement of the knowledge about biological systems and the development of diagnostic, therapeutic and rehabilitation systems and devices.

Bioengineers use the methodologies and the technologies typical of information, chemical and mechanical engineering to solve problems in the life sciences. The challenges due to the complexity of biological and physiological systems and data, often require setting up ad hoc solutions which, in turn, enrich the engineering knowledge.

 

 

Automation

Submitted by zennaro2 on

Automation offers tools for the analysis and design of modern control systems. It does so leveraging on the synergy between state of the art methodologies and solid knowledge of technological processes involved. Our expertise focuses on different aspects of contemporary control system engineering: robotics, machine learning, industrial automation, complex systems.
