A simplified model to estimate nonlinear turbulent transport only by linear calculations is proposed, where the turbulent heat diffusivity in tokamak ion temperature gradient(ITG) driven turbulence is reproduced for a wide parameter range including near- and far-marginal ITG stability. The optimal nonlinear functional relation(NFR) between the turbulent diffusivity, the turbulence intensity [Formula: see text], and the zonal-flow intensity [Formula: see text] is determined by means of mathematical optimization methods. Then, an extended modeling for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] to incorporate the turbulence suppression effects and the temperature gradient dependence is carried out.

The NN method processes the measured raw spectral line shape, providing a single Gaussian shape based on the training dataset, which consists of synthetically prepared Doppler shift and broadening free spectral lines in the present work. It is found that the uncertainty reduction level significantly depends on the training dataset.

In this study, we investigated the effects of millimeter waves on genotoxicity and heat shock protein expression in human corneal epithelial (HCE-T) and human lens epithelial (SRA01/04) cells. We exposed the cells to 40-GHz millimeter waves at 1 mW/cm2 for 24 h.

However, the wireless power transfer (WPT) requires high energy levels, and the suitability of various types of WPT systems must be assessed. This paper describes a method for solving technical and safety issues associated with this technology.
