Nishida, Akemi; Suzuki, Yoshio; Yamada, Tomonori; Kino, Chiaki; Uzawa, Ken*; Miyamura, Hiroko; Kawamura, Takuma; Takemiya, Hiroshi; Nakajima, Norihiro

RIST News, (54), p.33 - 37, 2013/01

Nuclear plants are complicated and huge structures and consist of a large number of parts. To simulate the behavior of such a complicated huge structure, it becomes important the viewpoint as a general system including pre-post-processing. Therefore, the CCSE proposed an approach for assembly structure analysis and implemented a framework of a full-scale 3D vibration simulator for an entire nuclear plant. Until now, we performed numerical experiments using the data of a building and equipment of HTTR, Oarai R&D Center, JAEA, and demonstrated that earthquake response simulation of large-scale structure as an entire nuclear plant was possible so far. In this report, the framework of the full-scale 3D vibration simulator, the assembly structure analysis approach and visualization technology for an evaluation of the results are shown. And finally, an example of application of the simulator for probabilistic risk assessment, PRA, started from 2011, is shown.

Component-wise meshing approach and evaluation of bonding strategy on the interface of components for assembled finite element analysis of structures

Yamada, Tomonori; Kushida, Noriyuki; Araya, Fumimasa; Nishida, Akemi; Nakajima, Norihiro

Key Engineering Materials, 452-453, p.701 - 704, 2011/01

The paper describes a component-wise meshing approach and bonding strategy on the interface of components. In order to assemble component-wise meshes, the penalty method is introduced not only to constrain the displacements, but also to introduce classical spring connection on the joint interface. The convergence performance of an iterative solver with penalty method is investigated and the detailed component-wise distributed computation scheme is described with numerical examples.

Structural simulation and modeling for assembly in real space

Nakajima, Norihiro; Nishida, Akemi; Suzuki, Yoshio; Yamada, Tomonori; Takemiya, Hiroshi; Iyoku, Tatsuo

Proceedings of Joint International Conference of 7th Supercomputing in Nuclear Application and 3rd Monte Carlo (SNA + MC 2010) (USB Flash Drive), 4 Pages, 2010/10

FIESTA is a large scale simulation, which concerns a simulation space to bring real world in digital space, such as so named either virtual reality or virtual facility. In order to establish a huge and complex object like nuclear facilities of a real world, there are lack of methodology and technology for reproducing facilities in digital space. FIESTA attempts to realize an assembly structural analysis for supplying one of the methodologies to reproduce facilities in digital space. The first attempt of the structural analysis for assembly is accomplished by finite element analysis by integrating parts of facilities. Since the structural analysis for assembly requests massive calculation, parallel and distributed computing was applied for the computational environment. The structural analysis for assembly by finite element method is confirmed to be able to analyze a huge and complex facility and show results of numerical experiment by applying to a test reactor driven by JAEA.

Development and application research of vibration simulator for full-scale nuclear power station

Nishida, Akemi; Araya, Fumimasa; Yamada, Tomonori; Kushida, Noriyuki; Takemiya, Hiroshi; Nakajima, Norihiro

Anzen Kenkyu Fuoramu 2009 Shiryoshu, p.25 - 29, 2009/02

The development of a vibration simulator has been planned for used in a full-scale nuclear power station; this simulator will implement the latest computational technologies and will allow comparisons to be made among the conventional spring-mass models and the actually observed data obtained from experiment and practice. This simulator will be used for evaluating the conservativeness of conventional models and the fragility of components through a seismic PSA (probabilistic safety assessment). This simulator will be used for analyzing the seismic responses of the entire nuclear facility by modeling each component independently. The numerical capability of the simulator has already been confirmed; presently, the accuracy of the dynamic response results is being investigated by means of a comparison with the recorded data of an actual plant system.

A Large scale simulation for impact and blast loading issues

Nakajima, Norihiro; Araya, Fumimasa; Nishida, Akemi; Suzuki, Yoshio; Ida, Masato; Yamada, Tomonori; Kushida, Noriyuki; Kim, G.; Kino, Chiaki; Takemiya, Hiroshi

Proceedings of International Symposium on Structures under Earthquake, Impact, and Blast Loading 2008, p.119 - 123, 2008/10

Japan is so said an energy consumption country of the fourth place world, but the energy resources such as petroleum, the natural gas are poor and depend on import for the most, and stable supply becomes a big problem. For the greenhouse gas restraint, the promotion of the energy saving is featured. A nuclear power plant for commerce in Japan has been started in 1966. The supply occupies about 30 percent of the now Japanese electricity generating. Due to the nature of Japan, earthquake proof is an important subject for social infrastructure operation. To encourage its proofing, many approaches have been applied into many infrastructures, not only computational approach. A computational science approach for earthquake proof is suggested with FIESTA(Finite Element Structural analysis for Assembly), a large scale simulation. A methodology is discussed from the point of view of impact and blast loadings. Examples of loadings in the nuclear engineering are introduced.

Dai-57-Kai Riron Oyo Rikigaku Koenkai Koen Rombunshu, p.33 - 35, 2008/06

It has been disciplined to realize a simulation space, which can emulate real world in digital space, such as so named either virtual reality or virtual facility. In this paper, it is realized an assembly structural analysis for supplying one of the methodology to reproduce facilities in digital space. The first attempt of the assembly structural analysis is accomplished by finite element analysis by integrating parts of facilities. Since the assembly structural analysis requests massive calculation, grid computing was applied for the computational resource.

We realize a vibration table in an extended world for simulation, which is capable of emulating the real world's earthquake in digital space and brings concurrent experiments between real and digital one. In this paper, a methodology for reproducing facilities in an extended world is proposed through analysis of assembled structures, as well as introduction of the computing framework used.

With the main aim of providing physics basis for ITER and the steady-state tokamak reactors, JT-60/JT-60U has been developing and optimizing the operational concepts, and extending the discharge regimes toward sustainment of high integrated performance in the reactor relevant parameter regime. In addition to achievement of the equivalent break-even condition (QDTeq up to 1.25) and a high fusion triple product = 1.5E21 m-3skeV, JT-60U has demonstrated the integrated performance of high confinement, high beta-N, full non-inductive current drive with a large fraction of bootstrap current in the reversed magnetic shear and in the high-beta-p ELMy H mode plasmas characterized by both internal and edge transport barriers. The key factors in optimizing these plasmas are profile and shape controls. As represented by discovery of various Internal Transport Barriers, JT-60/JT-60U has been emphasizing freedom and restriction of profiles in various confinement modes. JT-60U has demonstrated applicability of these high confinement modes to ITER and also clarified remaining issues.
