Abstract

ITER is designed to withstand a certain number of full scale plasma disruptions; each disruption event can induce excessive thermal loads, electromagnetic (EM) loads, and runaway electrons (REs) onto the vacuum vessel and invessel components. The consequences of unmitigated events are extremely serious in terms of reduced component lifetime and significant damage to the components.
