00:42 Study of Defect Characteristics Essential for NDT Testing Methods ET, UT and RT
This paper presents results from a literature review of defect characteristics essential for non-destructive testing (NDT). Most of the major NDT methods are included in the study - ultrasonic testing (UT), radiography (RT) and eddy current testing (ET). The study was performed by means of searching in scientific databases, technical journals, conference proceedings etc. Mainly, the following...

99:10 Verification and Validation of HumanFactors Issues in Control RoomDesign and Upgrades
Systems, facilities and equipment are periodically updated during a power plant's lifetime. This has human factors implications, especially if the central control room is involved. Human factors work may therefore be required. There is an extensive literature on human factors itself, but not so much on how it is verified and validated. Therefore, HRP and the Swedish Nuclear Power Inspectorate...

1997:12 Study of International Published Experiences in Joining Copper and Copper-alloys
This study has revealed a number of joining processes to be used when manufacturing copper-canisters for the final storage of high level nuclear waste. However, the decision on which material and which joining process to be used has to be based on the design criterions. The welding procedure has to be qualified i.e, it shall be demonstrated whether the procedure is capable of fulfilling...

1996:70 Risks from Nuclear Waste
The first part of this review discusses the importance of risk. Man seems to have a longing for risks, like a part of the human nature. If risks are missing, they have to be invented, as needed parts in the emotional attraction of sports, amusement parks, traveling, etc.; this is the emotional part of risk. There is also a rational part of risk , in selecting such objects in ordinary life big...
