This Safety Requirements publication was prepared under the IAEA programme on Safety Standards for Nuclear Installations. It establishes requirements and provides criteria for ensuring safety in site evaluation for nuclear installations. The Safety Guides on site evaluation listed in the references section provide recommendations on how to meet the requirements established in this Safety Requir…
This report provides guidance for conducting seismic safety evaluation programmes for existing nuclear power plants in a manner consistent with internationally recognized practice. It will be useful for regulatory organizations and other organizations responsible for the implementation of seismic safety evaluation programmes.
The human race is in a dilemma; it is threatened by economic instability on one hand and climate change on the other. Either of these could lead to widespread unrest and political turmoil, if the right choices are not made now. In particular, prosperity without carbon emission implies a comprehensive switch in our sources of energy. With luck, the activity generated by the process of switching …
The response of a nuclear installation’s structure during an earthquake depends on the characteristics of the ground motion, the surrounding soil and the structure itself. Soil– structure interaction (SSI) analysis is used to evaluate the effects of seismic ground motion on an installation’s structure, system and components, to ensure it is designed to withstand the effects of earthquakes…
