Sensitivity of Dynamic Behaviour of the Fe Model: Case Study for the Ignalina NPP Reactor Building

Abstract

Abstract. The 3D thin-walled finite element model of Ignalina NPP Unit 2 reactor building was developed aimed at the evaluation of the global dynamic behaviour with a focus on the seismic response. The model comprises description of the monolithic structures, while prefabricated frame structures are ignored and replaced by external masses. Sensitivity study of the selected dynamic characteristics of the model with respect to data uncertainties is considered. Uncertainty of the model is considered in terms of masses of removed structures and wall stiffness. Seismic input is represented by the site specific free-field ground response acceleration spectra. The sensitivity study concerns variations of frequencies and acceleration of in-structure horizontal response spectra at specified points. Maximal bending moments are also considered. It was obtained that the reactor level is not sensitive to the uncertainties considered, while discernable sensitivity was detected at the top level of the structure.

Non-Linear Dynamic Analysis of Coupled Spar Platform

“…In actual field problems hydrodynamic loads due to wave and currents act simultaneously on spar platform and mooring lines. Finite element model has been established to cope up all the dynamic behaviour in support of precise computation (Baušys et al 2008;Chow, Li 2010;Mang 2009). In this FE model, the entire structure acts as a continuum.…”

The Residence Plot Selection Model for Family House in Vilnius by Neutrosophic Waspas Method

“…The need for qualitative assessment remains relevant for their data information. Compared to traditional methods, it is easier to evaluate elements such as justice, qualitative variables and social aspects using MCDM methods (Baušys et al, 2008;Yazdani-Chamzini et al, 2017;Sierra et al, 2018;Invidiata et al, 2018;Yan et al, 2019).…”

Lietuvos teritorijos žemes plutos deformaciju ir seismotektoninio potencialo ryšys

“…Rytinė Lietuvos dalis (Ignalinos rajonas) yra Daugpilio padidėjusio aktyvumo seismogeninė zona. Joje galimas per 7 balų žemės drebėjimas, todėl Žemės plutos judesiai daugiausia nagrinėti Ignalinos atominės elektrinės rajone (Zakarevičius et al 2009;Šliaupa et al 2004;Zakarevičius 1994Zakarevičius , 2003Zakarevičius, Stanio nis 2004, 2005, 2007Baušys et al 2008;Levinskaitė 2009). Žemės plutos judesių tyrimai Lietuvoje itin aktualūs ne tik dėl Ignalinos atominės elektrinės, bet ir dėl esamų didesnę ekologinę grėsmę keliančių statinių ir ypač dėl naujos elektrinės statybos vietos parinkimo.…”
