The Demo Oriented Neutron Energy Source (DONES) plant design has been evolved from the 2013 IFMIF-EVEDA design. The current design activities are set in the frame of the EUROFUSION work programmes. Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Inspectability (RAMI) analyses are part of these activities.
A target of 70% of operational availability was established for IFMIF-DONES facility...

The machine protection (MP) systems are of the utmost importance to reach high availability and reliability in a particle accelerator driven facility such as ESS. Designing robust and reliable MP systems is essential to achieve low-risk operation, yet a smooth and highly available operation has to be facilitated. The ESS MP systems evolved throughout their iterative design processes in the...

Nowadays, intelligent robotic systems are becoming essential for industry and harsh environments, such as the CERN accelerator complex. Aiming to increase safety and machine availability, robots can help perform repetitive and dangerous tasks which humans either prefer to avoid or are unable to do because of hazards, size constraints or the extreme environments in which they take place, such...
