원자력 발전소에 설치되는 안전관련 기기의 손상은 심각한 사고로 이어질 수 있으므로 반듯이 지진안전성을 확보하여야 한 다. MCC, Switchgear, Inverter, Battery charger 등의 전기캐비닛은 대표적인 안전관련 기기이다. 대부분의 실험적 연구는 실험대 상기기의 크기와 실험장비의 성능한계 등으로 인하여 주요부품을 대상으로 하며, 실제 원자력발전소에 납품하는 전기캐비닛을 이용하 여 3축 동시가진에 의한 진동대 실험을 수행한 연구는 많지 않다. 따라서 실제기기를 대상으로 3축 진동대 실험을 통하여 내진성능과 한계상태를 직접적으로 평가하기 위한 연구가 필요하다. 이러한 한계상태평가의 주요 목적은 다양한 부품으로 구성된 캐비닛 단위 실 제기기의 임계 가속도 및 고장 모드를 조사하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 3축 진동대 실험으로 한계상태 내진성능실험을 수행하여 원자 력발전소에 납품되는 것과 동일한 4종의 전기캐비닛들의 한계상태를 분석하였다.

Kori Unit 1, the first commercial nuclear power plant (NPP) in Korea, was permanently shut down in 2017 and was scheduled for decommissioning. Various programs must be planned early in the decommissioning process to safely decommission NPPs. Radiological characterization is a key program in decommissioning and should be a high priority. Radiological characterization involves determining the decommissioning technology to be applied to a nuclear facility by identifying the radiation sources and radioactive contaminants present within the facility and assessing the extent and nature of the radioactive contaminants to be removed from the facility. This study introduces the regulatory requirements, procedures, and implementation methods for radiological characterization and proposes a methodology to link the results of radiological characterizations for each stage. To link radiological characteristics, this study proposes to conduct radiological characterization in the decommissioning phase to verify the results of radiological characterization in the transitional phase of decommissioning NPPs. This enables significantly reducing the scope and content of radiological characterization that must be performed in the decommissioning phase and maintaining the connection with the previous phase.

As climate change and population growth raise the likelihood of natural disasters, it becomes crucial to comprehend and mitigate these risks in vital infrastructure systems, especially nuclear power plants (NPPs). This research addresses the necessity for evaluating multiple hazards by concentrating on slope failures triggered by earthquakes near NPPs over a timeframe extending up to a return period of 100,000 years. Utilizing a Geographical Information System (GIS) and Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS), the research conducts a comprehensive fragility assessment to predict failure probability under varying ground-shaking conditions. According to the Newmark displacement method, factors such as Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA), slope angle, soil properties, and saturation ratio play significant roles in determining slope safety outcomes. The investigation aims to enhance understanding seismic event repercussions on NPP-adjacent landscapes, providing insights into long-term dynamics and associated risks. Results indicate an increase in slope vulnerability with longer return periods, with distinct instances of slope failures at specific return periods. This analysis not only highlights immediate seismic impacts but also underscores the escalating risk of slope displacement across the extended return period scales, crucial for evaluating long-term stability and associated hazards near nuclear infrastructure.
