	The Side Coupled Drift Tube Linac (SCDTL) is a 3 GHz accelerating structure for proton therapy linac designed for TOP-IMPLART, an Intensity Modulated Proton Linear Accelerator for Radio-Therapy. The structure is made up of short DTL accelerating tanks for low current proton beams, coupled by side coupling cavities. The purpose of this paper is to report on the analysis of electromagnetic and the thermo-mechanical behavior for the SCDTL structure. The 3D electromagnetic analysis is used to derive the power dissipation on the structure; then one can infer the temperature distribution and deformation field in order to eventually evaluate their feedback on the electromagnetic properties of the structure as, for instance, the cavity resonant frequency shift. Such a "multi-physics'' analysis has been performed for different supporting stem geometries in order to optimize the shunt impedance and the R/Q for SCDTL cavities.

The room temperature RF structures in the ELI-NP Linac will operate in multi-bunch with high repetition rate (100 Hz). For these reasons they are subject to some kW of power dissipated on the internal cavities surfaces. The resulting thermal deformation of the cavities shapes could imply variations in their electromagnetic fields. To limit these effects and optimize the cooling design, a fully coupled ElectroMagnetic- Thermal-Mechanical analysis has been performed on the S-Band Radiofrequency Gun and on the C-Band multi-cell structures.
