1994:14 Evaluation of acceptance criteriafor data on environmentally assistedcracking in light water reactors
The assessment of possible sub-critical crack growth through environmentally assisted cracking (EAC) is a commonly encountered problem in safety evaluations of light water reactor components. The numerous factors influencing EAC fall into three main groups (material, medium and loading), but their interactions are highly complex. Field assessments usually rely on the evaluation of...

1992:3 Characterization of seismic ground motions for probabilistic safety analyses of nuclear facilities in Sweden. SUMMARY REPORT
In Scandinavia seismic activity is generally low. Only a few incidents have been registered in historic time, which might have damaged an industrial plant of today. The risk of a nuclear accident in Sweden, caused by an earthquake, may thus be considered to be low. The two latest reactors Forsmark 3 and Oskarshamn 3 have been analysed and designed to resist a specified earthquake. For the...
