A Detailed Assessment of the Finite Element Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Structures Impacted by Large Missiles
- Sandia National Lab. (SNL-NM), Albuquerque, NM (United States)
This document consolidates the work performed by Sandia National Laboratories and the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission in participation of Program IRIS: “Improving the Robustness of the Assessment Methodologies for Structures Impacted by Missiles”. Three round-robin benchmark exercises on improving the robustness of the assessment of structures impacted by large missiles at medium to high velocities were organized by either the IAGE Subgroup on Ageing of Concrete Structures of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) or Électricité de France (EDF). The objectives of the exercises were to develop guidance for conducting impact analyses including issues related to computer codes, modeling approaches, and analysis techniques. The full project was comprised of three phases: Phase I, impact of walls; Phase II, impact of larger structures; and Phase III, transmission of shock and vibration to internal components.
