The objective of this review was to assist the NRC staff with the evaluation and resolution of the public comments.
Veletsos) were requested to carry out a review of the comments received from the above six organizations. In September 1988, Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) and its consultants (C.J. Comments were received from Sargent and Lundy Engineers, Westinghouse Electric Corporation, Stevenson and Associates, Duke Power Company, General Electric Company and Electric Power Research Institute. In June 1988, the proposed Revision 2 of the SRP more » was issued by NRC for public review and comments.
The proposed Revision 2 to the SRP was a result of many years' work carried out by the NRC and the nuclear industry on the Unresolved Safety Issue (USI) A-40: ''Seismic Design Criteria.'' The background material related to NRC's efforts for resolving the A-40 issue is described in NUREG-1233. « lessĭuring the first quarter of 1988, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) prepared a proposed Revision 2 to the NUREG-0800 Standard Review Plan (SRP) Sections 2.5.2 (Vibratory Ground Motion), 3.7.1 (Seismic Design Parameters), 3.7.2 (Seismic Systems Analysis) and 3.7.3 (Seismic Subsystem Analysis). The uniqueness of the CARES, however, lies on its ability to perform all required phases of the seismic analysis in an integrated manner. It should be pointed out that these types of analyses can also be performed individually by using available computer codes such as FLUSH, SAP, etc. The capabilities of the seismic module include (a) generation of artificial time histories compatible with given design ground response spectra, (b) development of Power Spectral Density (PSD) functions associated with the seismic input, (c) deconvolution analysis using vertically propagating shear waves through a given soil profile, and (d) development of in-structure response spectra or corresponding PSD's. It has been designed with user friendly features and it allows for interactive manipulation of various analysis phases during the seismic design process.

The code operates on a PC computer system and has multi-graphics capabilities. The development of the Seismic Module of the CARES system is based on an approach more » which incorporates all major aspects of seismic analysis currently employed by the industry into an integrated system that allows for carrying out interactively computations of structural response to seismic motions. This paper describes the features of the Seismic Module in particular.
Each module performs a specific type of analysis i.e., static or dynamic, linear or nonlinear, etc. The CARES is structured in a modular format. This system was developed by Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) for the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission to perform rapid evaluations of structural behavior and capability of nuclear power plant facilities. This paper describes the various features of the Seismic Module of the CARES system (Computer Analysis for Rapid Evaluation of Structures).
