Effects of thermal stresses on Pressurised Water Reactor nuclear containment vessels following a Loss of Coolant Accident with assimilated containment filtered venting system
In a nuclear power plant, the last barrier under normal and accident operations is the containment building. This is normally constructed from concrete reinforced with steel bars, which are prestressed to enhance the overall capability to withstand thermodynamic stresses like over-pressurisation and...
