4 A Hypothesis The ESSI Hypothesis NPPSSS response is a function of a tightly coupled (in space and time) triad of dynamic characteristic of Earthquake Ground Motions Underlying Soil/Rock NPP Structure, Systems and Components (NPPSSC) Energy balance: input (seismic) and dissipated (inelasticity, radiation, coupling) will control fate of the NPPSSS Better understanding of the timing and spatial location of energy dissipation in Earthquake-Soil-Structure Interaction (ESSI) system can add significant benefit to the safety and economy of NPPSSSs High Fidelity Numerical Simulations of ESSI for NPPSSS

6 Seismic Energy Input Seismic Energy Input Into the NPPSSS Seismic energy propagates to the NPPSSS Kinetic energy flux through closed surface Γ includes both incoming and outgoing waves (using DRM) [ ] E flux = 0; M Ω+ be ü0 e K Ω+ be u0 e; M Ω+ eb ü0 b + K Ω+ eb u0 b u i i Alternatively, E flux = ρac t 0 u2 i dt Outgoing kinetic energy is obtained from outgoing wave field (w i, in DRM) u b Ω u i u e Γ Γe Incoming kinetic energy is then the difference. P e (t) Ω + u e Γ+
7 Seismic Energy Dissipation Seismic Energy Dissipation within NPPSSS Mechanical dissipation outside of NPPSSS domain: reflected wave radiation NPP system oscillation radiation Mechanical dissipation/conversion inside NPPSSS: plasticity of the soil/rock subdomain viscous coupling of porous solid with pore fluid (air, water) plasticity/damage of parts of the structure/foundation viscous coupling of structure/foundation with fluids Numerical energy dissipation/production

9 Frequency and Time Domain Techniques ESSI Modeling Approaches Analytical (closed form) solutions Limited application for realistic NPPSSCs Excellent for verification studies Good for initial insight Potentially large modeling uncertainty! Numerical solutions Integral Equations (Boundary Element Method, CLASSI) Finite Element Methods Frequency domain (SASSI, etc.), widely used, linear elastic, etc. Time domain (LS-DYNA, NRC ESSI Simulator, etc.), gaining popularity, full non-linear, etc. Educated developers/modelers/analysts are a must
10 Frequency and Time Domain Techniques NRC ESSI Simulator Program: Library Centric Design A full 3D, non-linear Earthquake-Soil-Structure Interaction program, computer and documentation system MOSS library (UCD Modified OpenSees Services: trimmed, debugged, verified, documented), Plastic Domain Decomposition for Parallel Computing Finite element and material libraries (FEMtools, Template3DEP) Numerical utility libraries (BLAS, lapack, ndarray, matrix...) Solver libraries (UMFPACK, PETSc, SuperLU...) Graph libraries (ParMETIS) Domain Specific Language (DSL) library Verification, Validation, Educational, and Real NPPSSS Examples library
11 Frequency and Time Domain Techniques NRC ESSI Simulator Program: Management Application Programming Interface (API): well documented, for all libraries and examples Detailed theory background Verification examples, extensive Validation examples, as available Educational examples, extensive NRC ESSI Simulation in public domain, an open source license (LPGL) Source files management by subversion for a large number of developers and users
12 Frequency and Time Domain Techniques NRC ESSI Simulator Computer Distributed memory parallel computer Very cost effective, affordable, high availability, design exportable to Companies, Regulatory Agencies, Universities Same architecture as large parallel supercomputers (SDSC, TACC, EarthSimulator...) Current version at UCD, new version to be acquired soon

18 Verification and Validation Verification, Validation and Prediction Verification: the process of determining that a model implementation accurately represents the developer s conceptual description and specification. Mathematics issue. Verification provides evidence that the model is solved correctly Validation: the process of determining the degree to which a model is accurate representation of the real world from the perspective of the intended uses of the model. Physics issue. Validation provides evidence that the correct model is solved Prediction: use of computational model to foretell the state of an NPPSSS under conditions for which the computational model has not been validated
19 Verification and Validation Role of Verification and Validation Reality Analysis Model Discovery and Building Model Validation Computer Simulation Mathematical Model Continuum Mathematics Programming Computer Implementation Discrete Mathematics Code Verification
20 Verification and Validation Verification and Validation for Prediction How much can (should) we trust model implementations (verification)? How much can (should) we trust numerical simulations (validation)? How good are our numerical predictions? Can a simulation tool (NRC ESSI Simulator) be used for assessing public safety? V&V procedures are the primary means of assessing accuracy, building confidence and credibility in modeling and computational simulations Ever present uncertainties need to be modeled and propagated through the simulation process

24 Uncertain Seismic Motions Decision About Site (Material) Characterization Do an inadequate site characterization (rely on experience): conservative guess for soil data, COV = 225%, large correlation length (length of a model). Do a good site characterization: COV = 103%, correlation length calculated (= 0.61m) Do an excellent (much improved) site characterization if probabilities of exceedance are unacceptable!
