Your needs, We move.

The MOOV is a South Korean engineering firm working where failure is not an option. We qualify equipment, verify safety-related software, and analyse structures — and we document every conclusion so that a third party can reproduce it.

What We Do

Generative AI has made engineering documents and code cheap to produce. What remains difficult — and what we focus on — is judgement: whether a requirement was correctly defined in the first place, what a regulator is actually looking for, and whether an analysis result is physically plausible.

Nuclear Equipment Qualification & Seismic Analysis

Demonstrating that equipment installed in a nuclear power plant will perform its required function under normal, seismic, and accident conditions. Work covers seismic qualification, environmental qualification, radiation integrity assessment, ageing evaluation, and electromagnetic compatibility.

Applicable guidance and standards include Regulatory Guide 1.89 (environmental), Regulatory Guide 1.100 (seismic), Regulatory Guide 1.180 (EMI/RFI), IEEE Std 323, and IEEE Std 344.

Where shake-table testing is impractical — large cabinets and enclosures, or installed configurations that differ from the test specimen — seismic qualification is demonstrated by analysis. We build finite element models, determine natural frequencies through modal analysis, run response spectrum analysis against the applicable floor response spectra, and evaluate stress and deformation under Safe Shutdown Earthquake conditions, including anchor bolt and weld integrity.

Hardware and Software Verification and Validation (V&V)

Independent verification that safety-related software has been developed according to its requirements and performs its intended function. Activities span the full development lifecycle: integrity level classification, Software Verification and Validation Plan (SVVP), Requirements Traceability Matrix (RTM), stage-by-stage verification reports, and regulatory response.

Primary standard is IEEE Std 1012, applied together with NRC BTP 7-14 and applicable domestic licensing requirements.

V&V is no longer software-only. IEEE Std 1012 expanded its scope to systems and hardware in the 2012 revision; the 2016 edition is formally titled IEEE Standard for System, Software, and Hardware Verification and Validation. As new nuclear builds and I&C upgrades increasingly adopt FPGAs and other programmable devices, the behaviour of that hardware is determined by an HDL design whose development structure mirrors software. Testing alone no longer satisfies licensing requirements — lifecycle verification and traceability equivalent to software are expected. IEC 62566 addresses the development of HDL-programmed integrated circuits for category A functions.

Structural Analysis

Finite element analysis (ANSYS) to evaluate structural integrity quantitatively. Static structural analysis, boundary condition definition, stress singularity diagnosis and stress linearization, anchor bolt and weld integrity evaluation (ACI 349), and overturning stability assessment.

Software and Application Development

We build the tools we use. Calculation and document automation for desktop, V&V and workflow management systems, design automation utilities, and mobile applications — designed by people who understand the underlying engineering work.

Power Electronics and Hardware Design

Power conversion circuits from requirement definition through circuit design to verification. SMPS power supply design, PFC and PSFB topologies, protection and redundancy schemes, schematic and netlist documentation.

Track Record

Our projects span different industries but share one task: proving, with engineering evidence, that a device meets its required performance under its required conditions. The verification methodology established in the nuclear sector applies directly to other safety-critical industries.

Beyond Nuclear

The engineering rigour required in nuclear work — traceable assumptions, documented acceptance criteria, reproducible results — is not exclusive to nuclear. We apply the same analysis procedures and documentation standards to medical devices and industrial equipment, because the underlying question is identical: on what basis can this be called safe?
