MODAL CHARACTERISTIC ANALYSIS OF THE APR1400 NUCLEAR REACTOR INTERNALS FOR SEISMIC ANALYSIS

Reactor internals are sensitive to dynamic loads such as earthquakes and flow induced vibration. Thus, it is essential to identify the dynamic characteristics to evaluate the seismic integrity of the structures. However, a full-sized system is too large to perform modal experiments, making it diffic...
