2009:15 Improvement and Validation of Weld Residual Stress Modelling Procedure
Weld residual stresses 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 of these events is important in order to arrive at proper conclusions when assessing detected flaws, for inspection planning and for assessment of leak-before-break margins. Therefore, it is very important to have...

2008:38 Methodology for description and evaluation of cost profiles and cost structure during transitions period
A demanding task for our generation is to assure the appropriate financial resources are invested in the Swedish Nuclear Waste Fund. This will enable future generations to execute the decommissioning and dismantling of nuclear power reactors and other nuclear facilities in a prudent manner. The main aim is to fulfil the demands of environmental and health codes in a pan-European context...

2009:13e 2009 assessment of radiation safety in the Swedish nuclear power plants
This report has been prepared by order of the Swedish government in accordance with the “Governmental directive for the financial year 2009 regarding the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority”. The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority has through its supervision ensured a comprehensive basis for this overall assessment of radiation safety. The overall conclusion is that the radiation safety,...

2008:29e Safety and Radiation Protection at Swedish Nuclear Power Plants 2007
The safety level of the plants is maintained at an acceptable level. SKI has in its regulatory supervision not found any known deficiencies in the barriers which could result in release of radioactive substances in excess of the permitted levels. SKI considers that improvements have been implemented during the year in the management, control and following up of safety work at the plants. In...

2007:15 Evaluation of the FRAPTRAN -1.3 Computer Cod
The FRAPTRAN-1.3 computer code has been evaluated regarding its applicability, modelling capability, user friendliness, source code structure and supporting experimental database. The code is intended for thermo-mechanical analyses of light water reactor nuclear fuel rods under reactor power and coolant transients, such as overpower transients, reactivity initiated accidents (RIA),...

2007:06 Probabilistic Safety Goals - Phase 1 -Status and Experiences in Sweden and Finland
Based on a series of interviews and on literature reviews as well as on a limited interna- tional over-view, the project has described the history and current status of safety goals in Sweden and Finland. A number of issues were discussed more in detail, including the status of the safety goals in view of the fact that they are often exceeded, strategies for handling violations of safety...

2016:04 Uncertainty assessment of the SCANAIR V_7_5 computer program in analyses of BWR reactivity initiated accidents
In this work, we assess uncertainties that can be expected in computational analyses of boiling water reactor reactivity initiated accidents with the SCANAIR V_7_5 computer program. The work is intended to supplement a similar uncertainty assessment, focussed on pressurized water reactor accidents, which is currently being organized as an international benchmark exercise by the OECD Nuclear...

2016:37 PARTRIDGE project: Review and evaluation of the probabilistic fracture mechanics code PRO-LOCA
Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) and the Swedish nuclear power plant owners have financed Inspecta Technology in Sweden to evaluate the PRO-LOCA code. It is a computer code, developed by Battelle in the USA, in which the leak- and rupture probabilities of piping in nuclear power plants are analysed. The pipe systems may contain the damage mechanisms fatigue and/or...
