Analytical solutions for seismic fluid-structure interaction (FSI) of tanks are used by analysts
and engineers for a number of purposes, including preliminary sizing, risk assessment, and …

Seismic design and qualification of advanced reactors will rely heavily on the use of verified
and validated numerical models capable of capturing the interaction of the vessel, its …

Seismic design, qualification, and risk assessment of nuclear safety-related vessels filled
with liquid will have to consider the interaction between the vessel (tank), the contained …

The acoustic fluid‐structure interaction (FSI) formulation is a practical numerical approach
for the seismic analysis of fluid‐filled tanks. However, there are no verification and validation …

A base-supported partially-filled fluid–shell system representing the pressure vessel of a fast
reactor is studied. The shell is made of two cylindrical parts joined through a conical part …

Purpose This study investigates the impact of two-way fluid–structure interactions (FSIs) on
the dynamic behavior of flexible liquid storage tanks. A hybrid approach, integrating the finite …

Earthquake shaking of a liquid‐filled advanced reactor induces fluid‐structure interaction
(FSI) between the reactor vessel (tank), its internal components, and the contained liquid …

Dynamics of a system comprising three interconnected partially-filled concentric cylindrical
shells is studied. The outermost shell is upright, and is head-supported. The base of the …
