2019:24 SSM's external experts' review of SKB's analysis of long-term safety of 1BMA (SFR)
SSM perspective Background Fractures in the concrete barrier of the rock vault 1BMA in the final repository for low and intermediate level waste (SFR) have been observed. The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) enforced Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) to assess the long-term radiological consequences of 1BMA (SSM2015-2432-26) given the present state of the rock...

2018:08 Calculated radiological consequences of applying European clearance levels to scrap metal from the decommissioning of Swedish nuclear facilities
Background Many practices involving radioactive substances generate materials with potential or known radioactive contamination. Clearance of materials means a decision that such materials can be released from regulatory control and used or disposed of without restrictions from a radiation protection point of view. According to regulations issued by the SSM, such decisions must be based on...

1991:08 The Potential Significance of Permafrost tothe Behaviour of a Deep RadioactiveWaste Repository
Permafrost is one of the scenarios that is being considered as part of the groundwater flow and transport modelling for the Project-90 assessment. It is included as one of the primary Features, Events and Processes (FEPs) which are being kept outside the PROCESS SYSTEM in the SKBjSKI scenario development project (Andersson at aI, 1989). There is a large amount of evidence that Sweden has...

2013:27 Numerical simulations of headed anchors break in reinforced and non-reinforced concrete structures
The design codes for anchorage of equipment in concrete structures have been developed since the time the Swedish power plants were designed. Furthermore, the design basis has been updated and in some cases new mechanical loads have been added. As a consequence, it can be difficult for some anchorages to meet the requirements of today. In the design of anchorage equipment the beneficial effect...
