Abstract:In case of a projectile impact on a reactor building of a nuclear power plant, stress waves propagate from the impacted wall to the structure’s interior. It is important to assess the effect of dynamic responses generated by the projectile’s impact on internal equipment, because stress waves are likely to excite high-frequency vibrations of internal equipment. The OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) / NEA (Nuclear Energy Agency) launched the IRIS (Improving Robustness Assessment Metho… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
