NEUP CINR-22-26713: A Validated Framework for Seismic Risk Assessment of Spent Fuel Storage Facilities

We propose a collaborative research program with the primary objective of developing a validated numerical framework for seismic risk analysis of spent fuel storage facilities from the global cask behavior to the localized behavior of internal spent fuel assemblies. In building and validating this framework, we will utilize advanced data analysis, data assimilation, and forward and inverse modeling techniques.
