RISIntegrity Evaluation of Boundary Function of Main Components in Nuclear Plants During Severe Accidents
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: After the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, very strict safety measures were implemented for nuclear power plants in Japan. It thus becomes a crucial issue if the safety of a plant is maintained or not ...
Experimental Study on the Deformation and Failure of the Bellows Structure Beyond the Designed Internal Pressure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Bellows structure is used to absorb the thermal expansion maintaining the boundary of the inside to outside, and it is applied to constitute the containment vessel (CV) boundary of the nuclear power plant. In this study, ...
Development of In-Service Inspection Rules for Liquid-Metal Cooled Reactors Using the System Based Code Concept
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Inservice inspection rules for liquid-metal cooled plants were historically provided by Section XI, Division 3 of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. However, some parts of the Code, such as acceptance standards for ...
