Performance estimation of beryllium under ITER relevant transient thermal loads

The plasma facing first wall in ITER will be armored with beryllium. During operation, the armor has to sustain direct plasma contact during the start-up and ramp-down of the plasma. On top, transient thermal loads originating from a variety of plasma instabilities or mitigation systems are impactin...
