Original Abstract

The paper deals with the seismic analysis of safety related structures of an operating nuclear power plant. A sophisticated computation model has been developed using the ANSYS program. The model involves the complex of all constrained structures of the main production block with equipment. The seismic response analysis has been performed using linear response spectrum method. Feasible structural enhancements have been designed. In order to verify the designs a second seismic analysis has been accomplished using time-history method. The structural responses to site-specific design accelerograms have been computed. The results of both analyses are discussed in the paper.
