Description

A code is provided for the prediction of sawtooth oscillation regimes in experimentally described tokamak plasmas. The code iteratively solves Kadomtsev's model in combination with diffusive evolution of the perturbed temperatures. Results are to be compared with experimental data in order to predict plasma transport coefficients. The code subroutine describing disruptions can alternatively be incorporated in existing transport codes in order to include possible sawtoothing regimes. (orig.)
