2009:32 On Younger Stakeholders and Decommissioning of Nuclear Facilities
An appropriate balance in this regard must be based on a proper understanding of the values and value functions of younger citizens. Such information must thus be an integral part of the knowledge base to be used when plans and processes are being developed for dismantling and decommissioning of nuclear power plants and other older nuclear facilities. In the present project, empirical data...

2018:18 Procedure for Safety Assessment of Components with Defects
Background SSM and the Swedish nuclear power plant owners have financed Kiwa Inspecta Technology in Sweden to develop a new version of the handbook for assessment of defects. This represents a major update of the former fracture mechanics handbook that was published at SSM as Research 2008:01. The procedure in the handbook is based on the British R6-method where the failure mechanisms...

1997:40 Aging of Electrical Components in Nuclear Power Plants
The purpose of the study reported in SKl Technical Report 93:39 was to evaluate qualification methods for application to components intended to be installed in the containment of nuclear power plants. The study included application of Arrhenius' criterion for thermal aging as well as methodologies for updating (curve-matching, ongoing qualification). This report reviews the results of...

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...

2010:21 Childhood leukaemia around nuclear facilities
The first indication of a possible relationship between living close to a nuclear installation and the risk of childhood leukaemia came from the United Kingdom in 1983. A cluster of childhood leukaemia in the town of Seascale which is located close to Sellafield was reported in a TV documen-tary. Since then almost 200 studies have been carried out in order to investi-gate the occurrence of...

2017:29 Evaluation of the simulation software CIVA for qualification purpose
Background Modeling is an important tool within NDT, partly to develop and optimize testing technologies, but also within the Qualification Body’s activities to assess technical verifications and perform parameter studies. SSM has supported university research in the area for many years and, among other things, in the development of a software for ultrasound modeling. In addition, the...

2025:03 APRI-11 – Final Report
SSM perspective Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority together with the Swedish Power companies operating nuclear power reactors in Sweden have since early 1990’s provided financial support for severe accident research at KTH and Chalmers. The research was initiated almost directly after the installation of severe accident management system and strategy, as filtered containment...
