The UK Spherical Tokamak for Energy Production (STEP) program is currently progressing the conceptual engineering design of a Spherical Tokamak-based fusion reactor. The program includes a project concerned with design of the reactor breeding blanket. The objective of this work was to develop a low fidelity, integrated simulation approach to sup…

The use of small specimen test techniques (SSTT) to determine mechanical properties of irradiated materials has been studied over the previous decades both in fission and fusion programs, but also to characterise and optimise new materials by nuclear and non-nuclear communities. Currently a number of activities are running that focus on the standar…

The Master Curve approach allows the full characterisation of the ductile to brittle transition region (DBTR) of ferritic steels to be performed with a reduced number of tests. In this paper, the approach has been combined with the application of the small punch (SP) tests. Modified SP specimens have been successfully employed to estimate the fract…
