Blanket Engineering

Blanket Engineering is a subfield of fusion engineering that focuses on the design, analysis, optimization, and integration of fusion reactor blanket systems—breeding and shielding components surrounding the plasma—to ensure adequate tritium production, heat extraction, neutron shielding, structural integrity, and regulatory compliance.
