Design-oriented acceleration response spectrum for ground vibrations caused by collapse of large–scale cooling towers in NPPs

Nuclear-related facilities can be detrimentally affected by ground vibrations due to the collapse of adjacent cooling towers in nuclear power plants. To reduce this hazard risk, a design-oriented acceleration response spectrum (ARS) was proposed to predict the dynamic responses of nuclear-related fa...
