Abstract
One of the possible threats for a nuclear power plant is
an intentional large passenger aircraft impact against,
for example, the reactor building of the plant.
Resistance of the structures against such an impact is
shown with predictive models which have to be validated
against relevant experimental data. The phenomena that
arise in such a crash were studied experimentally as well
as numerically and analytically within SAFIR2014 research
projects IMPACT2014 and SMASH.
