Workplan: This Thesis Project will be focused on Nuclear engineering studies for in-vessel diagnostic components in DEMO. The main objectives of the thesis are: i) Perform nuclear, thermal and stress analyses for in-vessel components of diagnostic systems in DEMO; ii) Propose integration approaches that comply with the stringent constraints apllicable to diagnostics in a DEMOnstration power plant: limited space availability, need to maximize the Tritium Breeding Ratio (TBR), compatibility with Remote Maintenance (RM) systems and exposure to a harsh radiation environment for extended periods, under steady state operation conditions; and iii) Evaluate the effects of component displacements and material damage on the performance of the diagnostics at the end of the reactor lifetime 

Duration: The research fellowship(s) will have the duration of 12 months. It’s expected to begin in March 2025 and may be eventually renewed up to the maximum of 48 months, including the duration of the initial contract
