Popis:	The PERFECT project of the 6th Framework Program aims at developing a predictive tool for irradiation effects on Reactor Pressure Vessel steels. In this work, we focuse on the mechanical part of the numerical platform, the Toughness Module . Its main objective is to predict the probability of failure of the considered RPV steel, using more or less complex approaches. Six submodules are integrated in the Toughness Module . Three of them allow to estimate the macroscopic stress–strain curve of the material and the three others allow to predict the toughness drop of the material due to irradiation.
