Abstract :
The structural integrity of the ITER Vacuum Vessel is verified by elastic and/or non-linear analyses. The typical loads for the Vacuum Vessel are also explained. Electromagnetic load by vertical displacement event of plasma is most serious load. Major design modifications from basic design requirement are verified.
