✦ Synopsis


Analysis of particle-and energy-transport in tokamak plasmas shows the importance of the scrapeoff layer (SOL) t o achieve satisfying conditions for a burning plasma in a fusion reactor. To take into account the influence of complex geometrical features on transport, we developed a 2Dfluid-code based on a Finite Element Method (FEM). Because this numerical scheme needs no regular grid structure, one can deal much more accurately with the plasma flow in non simply connected domains and near limiteror divertor-plates, where the magnetic field is inclined t o the target. This permits a geometrically and physically more realistic description of the interaction of plasma-and neutral-particles. Results from a coupled calculation between the FEM-code and a neutral-gas Monte-Carlo-code (EIRENE) are discussed for the SOL of TEXTOR.

## Abstract A dynamic model for geared multi‐body system containing gear, bar and shaft is proposed and a new gear element is particularly developed based on a specific finite element theory. The gear element can take into account time‐variant meshing stiffness, the gear errors, and the couplings b
