Special Issues in the Application of Seismic Isolation to Nuclear Power Plants
While seismic isolation is one of the principal approaches used to mitigate the risks associated with earthquake ground shaking, it has found only limited application in the construction of nuclear power plants (NPPs). As a new application, it is necessary to understand how the overall process works...
