EnglishtIn magnetic confinement fusion devices, close-fitting passive conducting structures surrounding theplasma are an efficient way to slow down the growth rate of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities,enabling the possibility of an active stabilization by means of external actuators (coils). Nevertheless,a fully quantitative investigation, under realistic 3D boundary conditions, is still a very hard challenge.Moreover, the inclusion of fine geometrical details of actual passive structures might easily lead to imprac-tical memory and computational time requirements if the problem is not carefully addressed. In thiswork we present an effective technique to solve eddy current problems in thin conductors of arbitrarytopology by a boundary element method (BEM) based on a stream function. The proposed technique isapplied to study the dynamic response of the stabilizing shell of RFX-mod, both to axisymmetric andnon-axisymmetric external fields.
