1 EC Collaborative Project SILER: Seismic-Initiated events risk mitigation in LEad-cooled Reactors THEME: Fission : R&D activities in support of the implementation of the Strategic Research Agenda of SNE-TP Grant Agreement October 1 st, September 30 th, 2014 TRAINING COURSE ON SEISMIC PROTECTION OF LEAD-COOLED REACTORS Palazzo Camozzini, Via San Salvatore Vecchio, 6, Verona, Italy May 21-25, 2012 Summary of the SILER Project and aim of the Training Course SILER is a Collaborative Project aimed at studying the risk associated to seismic initiated events in Generation IV Heavy Liquid Metal Reactors and developing adequate protection measures. The attention is focused on the evaluation of the effects of earthquakes (with particular regards to beyond design seismic events) and to the identification of mitigation strategies, acting both on structures/components design as well as on the development of isolation devices, which can also have positive effects on economics, leading to an high level of plant design standardization. Attention is devoted also to the identification of plant layout solutions able to avoid risks of radioactive release from both the core and other structures (i.e. the spent fuel storage pools). Specific effort is devoted to the development of guidelines and recommendations for addressing the seismic issue in next generation reactor systems. In addition, consideration will be devoted to transfer the knowledge developed in the project to Generation III advanced systems, in line with the objective of the SNE-TP SRA to support present and future Light Water Reactors and their further development, for which safety issues are key aspects to be addressed. Note, in this respect, that the benefits of seismic isolation in terms of response to design seismic actions are already widely recognized for Generation III LWRs, along with the possibility of a significant standardization of structural and equipment design. SILER activities are performed by the following 18 partners: AGENZIA NAZIONALE PER LE NUOVE TECNOLOGIE,L'ENERGIA E LO SVILUPPO ECONOMICO SOSTENIBILE (ENEA), Italy, Coordinator; AREVA NP SAS, France; STUDIECENTRUM VOOR KERNENERGIE (SCK CEN), Belgium; FIP INDUSTRIALE SPA, Italy; Maurer Soehne GmbH & Co.

An external advisory committee (EAC) gives specific advise on technical issues that can arise from the project execution. The EAC is composed by the following experts: Gianmario Benzoni (University of San Diego, USA), Luciano Cinotti (MERIVUS), Nilesh Chokshi (NRC), Raffaele Figini (ENEL), Werner Maschek (KIT), Stefano Monti (IAEA), Federico Perotti (POLIMI), Craig F. Smith (NPS), Pierre Sollogoub (Consultant, former CEA, IAEA), Daniele Verwaerde (EdF). The present training course is organized with the aim of giving a base of knowledge to deal with the issues of seismic behavior and risk mitigation in lead cooled systems. The training course is addressed to PhD students and researchers active in the field.
