“…Some previous assessments [5,6] proposed the verification of structural integrity of the ITER VV Conceptual Baseline Design (2010) before to launch the manufacturing phase mainly based on elastic analysis. However the design modifications proposed by Domestic Agencies (and the manufacturers) associated to some revised interface loads require to verify one more time the structural integrity.…”

“…In the previous studies [5,6], 3Sm rule and linear fatigue assessment (with plastic amplification) have been used to prevent respectively the progressive deformation and the crack initiation by elastic analysis. Here the prevention of the S-type damage has been proposed by performing elasto-plastic analysis considering the level A cyclic loadings (load categories I and II).…”

The main functions of the ITER Vacuum Vessel (VV) are to provide the necessary vacuum for plasma operation, act as first nuclear confinement barrier and remove nuclear heating. The design of the VV has been reviewed in the past two years due to more advanced analyses, design modifications required by the interfacing components and R&D. Following the signature of four Procurement Arrangement (PAs), the manufacturing design of the VV sectors, ports and In-Wall Shielding (IWS) is being finalized and the fabrication of the VV sectors has been started in 2012.
