• 2014:55 Technical Note, Further Reproduction of SKB’s Calculation Cases and Independent

  Som en del av säkerhetsanalysen SR-Site presenterar SKB modellresultat som illustrerar kapseln och buffertens säkerhetsfunktioner. I var och en av de fem beräkningsfallen är delar av kapsel och/eller buffert frånvarande i modellen av slutförvarssystemet. Modellresultaten jämförs inte med säkerhetskriterier eftersom beräkningsfallen innehåller...

• 2014:44 Technical Note, Independent evaluation of the number of critical canister positions in the KBS-3 repository at Forsmark – Main Review Phase

  Independent calculations were carried out to estimate Ncrit, the number of canisters in critical positions that can be expected in the proposed repository at Forsmark, based on statistical simulations of SKB's geological discrete-fracture network (Geo-DFN) models, and taking into account SKB's full-perimeter criterion (FPC) and extended full-perimeter criterion (EFPC) to screen out...

• 2014:39 Technical Note, “Wormhole” and Multiple Loss of Buffer Safety Function Scenarios

  This Technical Notes reviewed the issues that may cause canister corrosion other than the cases evaluated by SKB, which may belong to “What-if” canister corrosion scenarios. This Notes, in particular, addressed two potential canister corrosion scenarios: “wormhole” formation and loss of multiple buffer safety functions. The “wormhole” scenario was hypothesized during the SSM Workshop on...

• 2014:46 Technical Note, QA in SKB’s Groundwater Flow Modelling

  The general objective of the project is to provide review comments on SKB’s postclosure safety analysis, SR-Site, for the proposed repository at Forsmark. The specific objective is to get an understanding and an assessment of SKB’s quality assurance of the groundwater flow modelling in connection to SR-Site. The reliability of the results of the groundwater flow modelling depends inter alia...

• 2014:59 Technical Note, Relation between earthquake magnitude, fracture length and fracture shear displacement in the KBS-3 repository at Forsmark – Main Review Phase

  This study addresses one of several scenarios that could impair the physical integrity of the repository of spent nuclear fuel at the Forsmark site. Two sources of threat are: i) events due to thermal loading on the rock mass by the heat from canisters with spent nuclear fuel, and ii) seismic events, i.e. earthquakes, at the nearby deformation zones and zones intersecting the repository area.
