Recent experimental and simulation work has substantially advanced the understanding of
L-mode plasma edge turbulence and plasma flows and their mutual interaction across the L …

This book aims to provide an introduction to dynamical systems with multiple time scales. As
in any overview book, several topics are covered only quite briefly. My aim was to focus on …

The use of low-dimensional dynamical systems as reduced models for plasma dynamics is
useful as solving an initial value problem requires much less computational resources than …

Forward and backward processes associated with the low-to-high (LH) transition in
magnetically confined fusion plasmas are investigated by using a time-dependent …

The transition dynamics from low (L) to high (H) mode confinement in magnetically confined
plasmas is investigated using a four-field drift fluid model—HESEL (Hot Edge-Sol …

We report a study of time-dependent probability density functions (PDFs) in the low-to-high
confinement mode (LH) transition by extending the previous prey-predator-type model [E …

The transition dynamics from the low (L) to the high (H) confinement mode in magnetically
confined plasmas is investigated using a first-principles four-field fluid model. Numerical …

In this work, the time-dependent solution for the Lotka–Volterra predator–prey model is
derived with the help of the Lambert W function. This allows an exact analytical expression …

The links between the microscopic dynamics and macroscopic threshold physics of the L→
H transition are elucidated. Emphasis is placed on understanding the physics of power …

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 …
