Abstract
This paper describes the procedures and results of the works done by the Korea Institute of Nuclear Safety (KINS) as a participant of the IRIS-2010 and 2012 benchmark projects, which have been organized by OECD/NEA IAGE working group. Within the scope of the IRIS-2012 project, uniaxial and tri-axial concrete tests were performed and the results were supplied. With these material test data, impact simulations of IRIS-2010 experiments (Punching P1 and Bending B1) were re-performed to improve the accuracy of the simulation results and to reduce the computation time.Numerical impact simulations were performed using an explicit dynamic code, LS-DYNA, and the initial FE model was updated through numerous parametric studies. Considering the symmetry of the structure, an updated model was constructed for ¼ of the structure, and the stiffness and mass of the supporting structure was considered. Loading function with a fictitious loading plate was applied instead of modeling projectiles to reduce the computation time. Three concrete models, Concrete damage rel. 3 (*MAT_072R3), Winfrith concrete (*MAT_084-085), and CSCM concrete (*MAT_159), were used for the impact simulations and the results were compared.
