| WEPAF079 | A Smart Framework for the Availability and Reliability Assessment and Management of Accelerators Technical Facilities | operation, GUI, controls, experiment | 2024 |
|

| CERN operates and maintains a large and complex technical infrastructure serving the accelerator complex and experiments detectors. A performance assessment and enhancement framework based on data mining, artificial intelligence and machine-learning algorithms is under development with the objective of structuring, collecting and analyzing systems and equipment operation and failure data, to guide the identification and implementation of adequate corrective, preventive and consolidation interventions. The framework is designed to collect and structure the data, identify and analyze the associated driving events. It develops dynamically functional dependencies and logic trees, descriptive and predictive models to support operation and maintenance activities to improve the reliability and availability of the installations. To validate the performance of the framework and quality of the algorithms several case studies are being carried out. We report on the design, implementation and on the preliminary results inferred on historical and live stream data from CERN's technical infrastructure. Proposal for the full deployment and expected long-term capabilities will also be discussed. | |||

Funding: Work supported by BMBF Contr. No. 05P15RFBA At the Institute for Applied Physics, Goethe-University Frankfurt, a sc 325 MHz CH-cavity has been developed and successfully tested up to 14.1 mV/m and has now reached the final production stage with the helium vessel welded to the frontal joints of the cavity and final processing steps have been performed. Further tests in a vertical and horizontal environment are being prepared for intensive studies. This cavity is a prototype for envisaged beam tests with a pulsed ion beam at 11.4 AMeV. In this contribution the results of the performed RF tests are being presented. Furthermore, first measurements of the recently installed 217 MHz coupler test bench are shown. |

| THPML028 | Genetic Algorithms for Machine Optimization in the Fair Control System Environment | controls, software, ion-source, dipole | 4712 |
|

| Due to the massive parallel operation modes at the GSI accelerators, a lot of accelerator setup and re-adjustment have to be made by the operators during a beam time. With the FAIR project the complexity of the accelerator facility increases furthermore and for efficiency reasons it is recommended to establish a high level of automation for future operation. The PEP (parameter evolution project) has been launched at GSI operations group in 2017 to investigate the potential of a settings optimization using evolutionary Algorithms. The working proof of principle has already been tested at the Cryring injector. The latest improvements and the further Development of the Parameter Evolution Project will be shown. | |||

| THPML075 | MYRRHA Control System Development | controls, interface, GUI, software | 4823 |
|
|||
| MYRRHA ADS (Accelerator Driven System), the prototype of a nuclear reactor driven by a particle accelerator, is being realized through a staged approach. This paper will explore the Control System (CS) strategy for the current stage of the accelerator R&D, where the goal is injector for the energies up to 5.9 MeV. Accelerator components are being delivered within international semi-industrial partnerships. Currently the RFQ, MYRRHA's first RF structure, is being introduced. It will be followed by the first Medium Energy Beam Transport (MEBT1) and several normal-conducting CH cavities. As the portfolio and number of devices and systems grows there is increased push towards standardization of integration procedures, interfaces to system-wide services, configuration management. Several partners provide components with varying level of vertical integration. The responsibility of the Control System integrator is therefore shifting towards provision of integration guidelines, configuration and deployment of central services and management tools, training to the contributing developers, help with specifications and requirements, quality insurance and acceptance criteria. | |||
