U.S ITER: electromagnetic analysis of transient forces due to disrupted plasma currents on the ITER shield modules

Description

This paper describes the electromagnetic analysis that has been completed using the OPERA-3d product to characterize the forces on the ITER shield modules as part of the conceptual design. These forces exist due to the interaction of the eddy currents induced in the shield modules and the large magnetic fields present in the tokamak.
