• UC Berkeley

  Graduate Researcher

  Seismic Isolation of Nuclear Power Plants. Investigating the applicability of seismic isolation and supplemental viscous damping to nuclear power plants with focus on seismic resilience and safety. Complex nonlinear time history analyses are conducted to assess overall seismic performance, especially floor response spectra, on characteristics of isolation system, modeling assumptions and ground motion characteristics. Identifying isolation parameters for the optimization of design to produce high performance levels of both structural response and secondary systems.
