Description

The dynamic analysis of a WWER-440 nuclear power plant located at Paks (Hungary) was performed for seismic loading conditions. A 3D finite element model was employed to idealize the complete structure. Soil-structure interaction was taken into account. The dynamic characteristics of the structure were also determined experimentally using explosive techniques. A good agreement between analytical and experimental procedures was reached. Floor response spectra and internal forces were calculated and evaluated. (author)
