Description

The paper summarizes the results of an instrumented 9 meter drop test of a Cylindrical Ductile Iron Cask with shock absorbers at the BAM test facility compared to a stress analysis performed with the dynamic finite computer code DYNA 3D (GNS). The comparison between the results obtained from the experiment and the calculation, which was performed before the drop test, is according to strain and acceleration time history during the impact and the deformation of the shock absorber.
