2017:22 Effect of weld repairs on residual stresses in nickel base dissimilar metal welds
Background The driving force for crack growth near welds in nuclear application piping may arise from weld residual stresses. Experience from nondestructive examination show that cracks in dissimilar metal welds are often found near weld repairs. The repair welding may affect the residual stresses through e.g. increased tensile stresses and increased plastic straining on the surfaces of the...

2017:05 Robust structural verification of pressurized nuclear components subjected to ratcheting, part two – stress-strain curves for cyclic elastoplastic analysis.
Background Pressurized components in nuclear applications that are subjected to cyclic loading may exhibit progressive deformation, so called structural ratcheting. If the component is made out of a material that are deformation hardening, it may also exhibit material ratcheting. The combined effects of structural- and material ratcheting are not taken into account in the methods and material...

2017:32 COMRAD – Comprehensive investigation of the performance of computed and digital radiography
Background Within the industry, there has long been a need to replace the traditional X-ray film and its handling. These both for economic and environmental considerations. Both computed radiography and digital radiography offer many advantages over the traditional use of x-ray with film. However, the transition from film-based radiography requires in-depth knowledge of the relationship...

2024:12 Recent Research on EMF and Health Risk, Eighteenth report from SSM’s Scientific Council on Electromagnetic Fields, 2023
SSM perspective Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority’s (SSM) Scientific Council on Electromagnetic Fields monitors current research on potential health risks in relation to exposure to electromagnetic fields and provides the authority with advice on assessing possible health risks. The Council gives guidance when the authority must give an opinion on policy matters when...

2024:10 Computational analysis of high-burnup fuel rod behaviour in PWR large-break LOCA
SSM perspective Background Quantum Technologies AB (QT) has for many years developed computational models for the thermomechanical behaviour of nuclear fuel in events such as LOCA and RIA. The research projects have been based on evaluations of tests on nuclear fuel in Halden Reactor Project (HRP) and Studsvik Cladding Integrity Project (SCIP). The models developed by QT enable analyses and...
