these tasks may include the following :
- Identifying TLAAs, fatigue analyses of record (AORs), and design transients that are part of the current licensing basis
- Reviewing plant data, operator logs, etc. to identify past transient occurrences and develop projected transient cycles for the period of extended operation
- Performing EAF screening evaluations to identify leading component locations requiring further evaluation
- Performing hand calculations to reduce conservatism in the fatigue AOR and apply EAF penalty factors (Fen) in the calculation of EAF cumulative usage factors (CUFen)
- Utilize the ANSYS software to develop finite element models and transfer functions for use in downstream WESTEMS evaluations
- Utilize the WESTEMS software to perform detailed stress and fatigue evaluations per ASME Code Section III Subsection NB-3200 criteria
- Interfacing with external customers to define project scope and resolve comments on documents
- Providing customer consultation to resolve NRC questions and requests for additional information
