An enhanced Craig-Bampton method
Jin‐Gyun Kim, Phill‐Seung Lee
SJR Q1International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering

In this paper, we propose a new component mode synthesis method by enhancing the Craig–Bampton (CB) method. To develop the enhanced CB method, the transformation matrix of the CB method is enhanced considering the effect of residual substructural modes and the unknown eigenvalue in the enhanced transformation matrix is approximated by using O'Callahan's approach in Guyan reduction. Using the newly defined transformation matrix, original finite element models can be more accurately approximated b

SJR Q1EnergiesOA

In this paper, recent advances in Ocean Nuclear Power Plants (ONPPs) are reviewed, including their general arrangement, design parameters, and safety features. The development of ONPP concepts have continued due to initiatives taking place in France, Russia, South Korea, and the United States. Russia’s first floating nuclear power stations utilizing the PWR technology (KLT-40S) and the spar-type offshore floating nuclear power plant designed by a research group in United States are considered he
