2.1. Benchmark results#
We test the maximum of the direct response module at the top of the excited building as well as the maximum of the coupled response module at the top of the adjacent building with respect to the values obtained during a test program on structures representative of nuclear buildings subject to seismic risk: program NUPEC [bib1].
The results of the calculations have been the subject of a detailed study.
