Abstract:Design basis earthquake may cause various internal hazards in nuclear power plants, such as fire, explosion, flooding, missiles, high-energy pipelines break, etc. In addition, earthquakes may also cause non-seismic items to fall or collapse, thus affecting safety-related systems or equipment. As the subsequent situation induced by earthquake is quite complex, no practicable methods have been presented yet to be used for the safety evaluation after earthquake. This paper introduces a feasible safety assessment … Show more
