 note = {Preparation of irradiation database is essential for the design activity of fusion reactor in-vessel components
since it is difficult to suppress the irradiation-induced degradation of material properties within the negligible
level. On the other hand, the preparation of irradiation database corresponding to the real fusion in-vessel
environment in the level that the existing design codes require for new material is not realistic. This limitation is
due to the limited capability of irradiation experiments, and the fusion neutron irradiation environment is not
available for the next ten years. The probability-based design method could be a potential alternative approach
to evaluating the possibility of components’ failure, where the material property is defined with a probability
density function. The statistical analyses of data are required to provide the function, and a case study on as
prepared and post-irradiation tensile properties of Japanese reduced activation ferritic/martensitic steel F82H
was conducted. It was indicated that the most data show a normal distribution, but post-irradiation elongation
data shows a possibility to follow a Weibull distribution.},
