Structural reliability of pre-stressed concrete containments [PDF]
Nuclear Engineering and Design, 2017 This paper presents probabilistic analysis of structural capacity of pre-stressed concrete containments subjected to internal pressure. The conventional design methods for containments are based on allowable stress codes which ensure certain factor of safety between expected load and expected structural strength.
