Description
The current status of the code development for simulating the structural damage of the graphite jaws of the
LHC collimators produced by 7 TeV protons is presented. The technique, which is being developed in the framework
of the Monte Carlo code FLUKA, combined with the results of experimental tests of carbon-carbon composite
materials in radiation hard environment will be capable of evaluating lifetime of the collimation system.
