In the framework of the EUROfusion Consortium, the Work Package Heating and Current Drive (WPHCD) is undertaking the development and design of the DEMO Heating and Current Drive (HCD) system, ...supported by the Work Package Plant Level Systems Engineering, Design Integration and Physics Integration (WPPMI). As the DEMO project is in the Pre-Conceptual phase, its development is dominated by uncertainties on system requirements, and by different DEMO designs and scenarios. In this context, a number of outstanding technology and physics issues, e.g. related to safety, neutronics, performance and reliability, need to be resolved using an integrated approach.
For coping with these boundary conditions, we present an initial analysis of HCD requirements and functions through the development of a System Architecture model, i.e. through describing the HCD system in terms of its functions and their interdependencies. Scope of the work is to address uncertainties i) associated with different reference scenarios (e.g. pulsed and steady-state tokamak) and operational concepts; ii) related to system performances. The assessment is part of integration activities, consisting of both systems engineering methodologies and design analysis, all aiming to ensure consistency in the overall EU DEMO plant design.

This study deals with approaches for a social-ecological friendly European bioeconomy based on biomass from industrial crops cultivated on marginal agricultural land. The selected crops to be ...investigated are: Biomass sorghum, camelina, cardoon, castor, crambe, Ethiopian mustard, giant reed, hemp, lupin, miscanthus, pennycress, poplar, reed canary grass, safflower, Siberian elm, switchgrass, tall wheatgrass, wild sugarcane, and willow. The research question focused on the overall crop growth suitability under low-input management. The study assessed: (i) How the growth suitability of industrial crops can be defined under the given natural constraints of European marginal agricultural lands; and (ii) which agricultural practices are required for marginal agricultural land low-input systems (MALLIS). For the growth-suitability analysis, available thresholds and growth requirements of the selected industrial crops were defined. The marginal agricultural land was categorized according to the agro-ecological zone (AEZ) concept in combination with the marginality constraints, so-called ‘marginal agro-ecological zones’ (M-AEZ). It was found that both large marginal agricultural areas and numerous agricultural practices are available for industrial crop cultivation on European marginal agricultural lands. These results help to further describe the suitability of industrial crops for the development of social-ecologically friendly MALLIS in Europe.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Mathematics of Program Construction, MPC 2012, held in Madrid, Spain, in June 2012. The 13 revised full papers ...presented together with three invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 27 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on security and information flow, synchronous and real-time systems, algorithms and games, program calculi, tool support, algebras and datatypes, and categorical functional programming.
