The Fusion Reactor Design Team is dedicated to advancing fundamental system design and integrated modeling techniques essential for future fusion devices. Our research focuses on connecting physics understanding with engineering-level design through comprehensive modeling frameworks and data-driven analysis.
The team develops automated data analysis platforms for existing tokamak experiments, enabling efficient extraction and interpretation of key physics and operational parameters. In parallel, we study the MHD characteristics of compact spherical tokamaks and explore the stability limits of novel confinement configurations using free-boundary equilibrium calculations and integrated physics codes.
By combining system-level modeling, equilibrium and stability analysis, and advanced computational tools—such as FUSE-based integrated modeling frameworks—the team aims to provide design guidance for next-generation fusion concepts, including K-DEMO, and to support data-informed optimization of present and future devices.
