From June 30th<\/sup> to July 4th<\/sup>, Hern\u00e1n Domingo<\/strong> attended the 14th<\/sup> International ITER School<\/a> on Integrated Modelling in Magnetic Fusion Plasmas, held in Aix-en-Provence, France. The event, organized primarily by Aix-Marseille University<\/a>, CEA<\/a> and ITER Organization<\/a> , brought together over 200 participants from diverse backgrounds, all sharing a common eagerness to learn more about nuclear fusion and integrated modelling.<\/p>\n

Our PhD student, Hern\u00e1n<\/strong>, had the opportunity to present a poster on Alya4fusion<\/strong>, our latest project focused on nuclear fusion reactor simulation and integrated modelling.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The school offered a five-day program filled with lectures on cutting-edge science<\/strong>\u2014not only plasma physics but also material science, control theory, mechanical engineering, and more\u2014delivered by top-tier professors and researchers. It also included activities such as an impressive visit to ITER\u2019s facilities<\/strong>, poster sessions<\/strong>, and various social events<\/strong>. These experiences fostered strong connections among participants, enriching the network within the friendly and collaborative fusion community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the poster session, Hern\u00e1n introduced Alya4fusion<\/strong> to the audience and engaged in constructive discussions. Alya4fusion is an integrated modelling framework composed of a set of modules running within Alya<\/a>, a finite-element-based code designed for high-performance computing environments. Alya allows to simulate multiphysics and engineering coupled problems. By developing modules that address fusion-relevant physical problems, the team is building a powerful numerical tool to support and optimize the design of nuclear fusion reactors.<\/p>\n

Hern\u00e1n’s participation in the ITER International School was made possible by the AI4S<\/strong> fellowship<\/a>, which supports his PhD program and related mobility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
