Elastic-plastic analyses for seismic reserve capacity in power plant braced frames

Description: The Lawrence Livermore Laboratory was asked by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission to investigate the inelastic behavior of a representative noncategory I structure and determine the amount of reserve seismic capacity that is available beyond elastic design levels. Elastic and elastic-plastic seismic analyses were conducted on a braced steel frame using eight time-history records. In addition, two spectra were ultimate capacity, the reserve strength of the frame was determined. In order to e… more

Posthydraulic fracture report

Description: A series of four, parallel, hydraulically induced hydrofractures were created. The hydrofractures will be used later in Phase I as the loading fractures for slurried explosives. An evaluation of the aerial extent, thickness, and resistance to air flow of each of these four fractures is reported. Downhole pressure, well-head pressure, surface resistivity, tiltmeter, hydrophone response, and crack opening measurements were used as dynamic tests to monitor and to later describe the hydrofracture. … more

Study program for constant current capacitor charging method

Description: The objective of the study program was to determine the best method of charging 20,000 to 132,000 microfarads of capacitance to 22 kVdc in 14 to 15 sec. Component costs, sizes, weights, line current graphs, copies of calculations and manufacturer's data are included.
