Analysis of test blanket module attachments under electromagnetic loads by using a dynamic amplification factor envelope

European test blanket modules (TBMs) are attached to radiation shields through mechanical joints. The structural integrity of the joints must be ensured under non-periodic dynamic loading caused by accidental electromagnetic events. This requires the transient dynamic analysis of the TBM-Joint-Shield under multiple loading scenarios. As temperatures and dynamic characteristics of the TBM-Joint-Shield system are updated under the course of the...
