The complex calandria tube to calandria tubesheet roller-expanded joint in CANDU nuclear reactors is usually qualified by test. In this paper, a state-of-the-art numerical simulation is undertaken in order to improve the understanding of the behaviour of the joint to support design modifications and provide assurance that the test rig envelopes behaviour of the in-situ reactor assembly. Parameters such as hoop stress, and plastic deformation of the assembly are predicted. The analysis results are also compared with the available test data and in-situ experimental data. The analysis results show that the test performed to qualify the joint using a small plate and single joint is representative of the in-situ reactor configuration.

Cubical Enclosure

High Rayleigh number (Ra) natural convective flows in cubical enclosures were investigated using Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS). Here the bottom of the cavity was heated while the top was cooled, each maintained at a different constant temperature, with the sidewalls insulated. The Prandtl number was maintained at 2.5 and the Ra varied between 106 and 108. In order to observe the transition to turbulence with increasing Ra, power spectrum slopes were compared with Kolmogorov’s −5/3 rule for turbulent flows. At the higher Ra studied, the flows showed characteristics typically attributed to “chaotic” flows. However, the transition to full turbulence was not observed, which is expected around Ra ∼ 109 and may not be predicted using DNS with the state-of-the-art computing technology.

The special issue entitled ‘‘Resilience and Sustainability of Civil Infrastructures under Extreme Loads’’ updates the state of the art and perspectives focused on cutting-edge approaches to enhance structures’ resilience and sustainability under extreme loading events, including theoretical investigation, numerical simulation, and experimental study, keeping an eye on the seismic performance of civil structures. Notably, some innovative energy dissipative devices and resilient structural forms, which are encompassed in this special issue, would provide valuable references for the engineering application of resilient and sustainable civil infrastructures in the near future.
