Seismic Investigation of Nuclear Reactor Containment Structure
In the emerging industrial sectors, energy to sectors is predominant need. Compare to all other energy sources, the nuclear power plant (NPP) is considered versatile in compensating energy consumption needs. So, the behavior of nuclear containment structures (NCS) in natural calamities like seismic scenarios has prime importance. In the present study, the dynamic behavior of NCS is considered, and containment structure was analyzed for various shell thicknesses. At the same time, the linear time history analysis was employed for soil stiffness evolution. A software tool SAP2000v21 package was used to model the geometry of the nuclear reactor's (NR) containment structure. This research summarizes several guidelines and techniques related to soil–structure interaction (SSI) analysis of structures. The obtained results of different shell element thickness parameters suggested that the SSI should be considered for the detailed analysis of essential structures.
