• 2010:43 Displacement along extensive deformation zones at the two SKB sites: Forsmark and Laxemar

  The Fennoscandian shield is distinguished by that the exposed bedrock is mainly composed of Precambrian metamorphic and igneous rocks older than a billion or one and a half billion years with few easily distinguished testimonies for the younger history. Large parts of the present ground surface closely coincides with a late Precambrian denudation surface; the sub-Cambrian peneplain.

• 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...

• 2017:09 Evaluation of the Swedish participation in the Nordic Nuclear Safety Research (NKS) collaboration

  Background NKS is a Nordic collaboration promoting cooperation on nuclear safety and emergency preparedness research. The research program is primarily funded by Nordic radiation safety authorities and responsible ministries. The main purpose of NKS is to finance joint Nordic activities and initiatives, including seminars and workshops, technical reports, exercises and scientific articles.
