In order to set up the welding techniques to be utilized for ITER TF coil case, it was considered that the numerical simulations might be an important tool in order to give some information on deformations and residual stresses due to the different phases of welding. TIG and SAW with filler material are the welding techniques considered. By the numerical point of view, until 1998, the numerical simulation...
