Popis: The Fusion Materials Topical Group (FMTG) coordinates, under the European Fusion Development Agreement (EFDA), the EU effort on the development of structural and protection materials for the very demanding operating conditions of a future DEMO reactor. The reference documents for this program are the European Roadmap for Fusion and the Materials Assessment Group (MAG) report.The FMTG work or EFDA work is structured as follows:a) Integrated radiation effects modelling and experimental validation: focused on the development of a conceptual and quantitative framework for the interpretation of experimental tests on steels and iron-based alloys and tungsten and tungsten alloys and predicting the performance of these materials under DEMO-relevant operating conditions.b) High heat flux materials: focused on the development of materials for armour applications (W alloys), structural applications for low and high temperature cooling concepts (Cu-based alloys, W-based alloys), materials technologies (joinin...
