2007:03 Variability and Uncertainties of Key Hydrochemical Parameters for SKB Sites
An important part of the site investigations conducted by the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) is the characterisation of groundwater chemical conditions in the deep bedrock environment where a final repository for spent nuclear fuel is planned to be located. This work is currently in its final stages at the two candidate sites, Forsmark and Laxemar, and should be...

2011:20 A Guidebook for Evaluating Organizations in the Nuclear Industry – an example of safety culture evaluation
Organizations in the nuclear industry need to maintain an overview on their vulnerabilities and strengths with respect to safety. Systematic periodical self- assessments are necessary to achieve this overview. This guidebook provides suggestions and examples to assist power companies but also external evaluators and regulators in carrying out organizational evaluations. Organizational...

2011:06 Reliability Data Handbook for Piping Components in Nordic Nuclear Power Plants – R Book, Phase 2
The Nordic PSA Group (NPSAG) has undertaken to develop a piping reliability parameter handbook for use in risk-informed applications that involve the consideration of structural integrity of piping systems. The scope of the handbook is to establish high quality reliability parameters that account for the Nordic and worldwide service experience with safety-related and non-safety-related piping...

2018:25 UO2 fuel oxidation and fission gas release
Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) follows the research on fuel performance closely. One aspect that has been the main question of several research projects is the fragmentation of fuel pellets during abnormal heat up. In this project the oxidation of UO2 is scrutinized and its effect on pellet fragmentation, fission gas release and damage of fuel rods has been...

2011:05 Overview and Evaluation of the NESC Projects for Fracture Assessments of Nuclear Components
The Network for Evaluation of Structural Components (NESC) was started in 1993 and since then six different projects have been carried out. A seventh NESC-project is still in progress. The overall objective of these projects has been to study the reliability of the entire process of structural integrity assessment within an international framework. The network is coordinated by the European...

2013:01 Validation of Weld Residual Stress Modeling in the NRC International Round Robin Study
Weld residual stresses (WRS) have a large influence on the behavior of cracks growing under normal operation loads and on the leakage flow from a through-wall crack. Accurate prediction on weld residual stresses is important to make proper decisions when cracks in weld joints are detected. During the latest years, there has been a strong development in both analytical procedures to...

2010:22 Research and Development Program in Reactor Diagnostics and Monitoring with Neutron Noise Methods, Stage 16
This report constitutes Stage 16 of a long-term research and development program concerning the development of diagnostics and monitoring methods for nuclear reactors. Results up to Stage 15 were reported in SKI and SSM reports, as listed below and in the Summary. The results have also been published in international journals and have been included in both licentiate- and doctor’s degrees.

2012:66 Safety Leadership – the managerial art of balancing production pressure and safety
A substantial part of the project has been dedicated to investigating and characterizing ‘safety leadership’, set in the context of literature on safety leadership, safety culture and safety management, in order to build a solid theoretical basis. The authors have delved deeply into the theories and conceptualizations of leadership and analysed this area in order to further the understanding...

2002:04 Qualification of Electrical Components in Nuclear Power Plants. Management of Ageing
The work was finished and reported in Swedish in a limited publication 2000, Ingemansson Rapport H-14061-r-I. As the performed work was regarded to be of more general interest it is published again as a research report by the Swedish Nuclear Power Inspectorate. To be used in the international cooperation in nuclear safety it was also translated into English by the inspectorate, which is this...
