Book excerpt: Annotation This collection of 33 papers from the August 2002 conference addresses thermal-hydraulic problems in vessels, piping, and components; sloshing and fluid-structure interaction; and structures under extreme loading conditions. Among the topics are a case study of a valve failure due to condensation induced waterhammer, an evaluation of shutdown cooling transients using simplified models, the behavior of chimney walls when submitted to an internal explosion, and modeling of munitions fragmentation and interaction with shielding systems.
