Parametric study on the structural response of a high burnup spent nuclear fuel rod under drop impact considering post-irradiated fuel conditions

A parametric study of several parameters relevant to design safety on the spent nuclear fuel (SNF) rod response under a drop accident is presented. In the view of the complexity of interactions between the independent safety-related parameters, a factorial design of experiment is employed as an effi...
